The Inner Reboot

In this episode, Sam and Heidi get into the very real, veryhuman side of change - not the fancy project plans or colour‑coded timelines, but the messy internal emotionally driven stuff we all feel yet rarely talk about.They chat about why adults struggle more than kids withletting go, why the “in-between” bit (aka the neutral zone) feels like emotional limbo, and how even something as small as hot‑desking can send our nervous system into meltdown. From fear and overwhelm to opportunity and growth, this one’s for anyone going through anything that feels likelife shifting around a bit.And yes, Dolly the Cockapoo joins them as unofficial third host. In this episode: Change vs transition: A chat about the difference between what physically changes and what emotionally shifts underneath it.The emotions of transition: Fear, overwhelm, excitement and everything in between and why they all show up.How mindset shapes the experience: How growth vs fixed mindset affects how we cope with change.The neutral zone (the messy middle): Why this in‑between stage feels chaotic but is actually where the good stuff happens.Real-life examples: Hot-desking, moving offices, shifting hours and why even small changes can feel big.Practical tips for navigating change: Simple ways to make transitions feel less overwhelming and more manageable.Frameworks mentioned: For anyone who likes a visual or wants to go down a littleGoogle rabbit hole:Bridges Transition Model: Ending & Letting Go / Neutral zone / New beginnings Thomas–Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument (TKI) Takeaways from the chat: The transition, not the change, is where the emotional weight lies. Fear is often the root feeling, name it and it becomes easier. Change is not 'one and done', it will always evolve. Small steps, rather than big leaps when navigating changes. Everyone experiences change and transitions differently and kindness always helps.

We loved giving our imposters some airtime in the hope that we can lessen their impact! In this episode, Sam and Heidi dive into the very human experience of imposter syndrome, where it comes from, why it shows up, and the ways it quietly shapes how we see ourselves. Through honest stories and real reflections, they unpack how workplace culture, feedback, and early experiences all play a role in feeding those “I’m going to get found out” thoughts.They also talk about how social media can distort self‑perception, why psychological safety matters, and the power of identifying the things you’re genuinely good at. This episode is ultimately about self-awareness, growth, andlearning to step outside the labels we’ve given ourselves, including  our “imposter.”References: The Imposter Phenomenon by Dr Kate Atkin Follow us: @the_inner_rebootSee what we do: https://trans4mativeminds.co.uk/Contact us info@trans4mativeminds.co.uk

This week we explore the magic of those unfiltered, rambling "how did we get here?" conversations and why they often lead to your biggest breakthroughs. We get honest about the messy middle of building something new, navigating overwhelm and letting the creativity flow without forcing a rigid plan. We talk about the surprising power of talking nonsense for clarity, ideas and momentum, why the messy middle is unavoidable and what it actually feels like, and how venting, brain-dumping and getting thoughts out can break those unhelpful mental loops. We also dive into the tension between creativity and structure, the importance of remembering your strengths (especially when you’re desperately trying to work in ways that don’t suit you), and the fact that we absolutely hate project planning — yet keep trying to pretend we don’t. And of course, we explore failing fast, trying again, and trusting the process even when nothing feels clear.Because sometimes the most transformational ideas start with absolute sh*t.Follow us on instagram: @the_inner_reboot Check out how we can help you to reach peak performance and positive mindsets: www.trans4mativeminds.co.ukAny questions email us at: info@trans4mativeminds.co.uk
