Trusting the process (even when it feels like nothing’s happening)

I’ve been thinking a lot about that weird in-between stage, the one where you’re doing all the right things but it still feels like you’re going nowhere.
You’re showing up. You’re trying. You’re doing the work.
and yet, the results? Crickets.

It’s uncomfortable.
Because we live in a world that worships progress, fast, visible, and preferably Instagrammable. We want proof that what we’re doing is “working.” and when we don’t see it, it’s easy to spiral into that “what’s even the point?” mindset.

But lately, I’ve been realizing something: maybe the process isn’t supposed to feel good all the time. Maybe it’s not about constant validation or obvious growth, maybe it’s about building trust with yourself when there’s no proof yet.

Sometimes, you’re not stuck. You’re just… marinating.
And honestly? That’s the hardest part. Sitting in that space where you can’t see what’s coming next, but you choose to believe that it’s still unfolding for you.

I’ve had to remind myself that the best things I’ve ever created, whether it’s a project, a version of myself, or a new chapter in life, all started quietly. Awkwardly. Slowly.
It never feels linear while you’re in it, but when you look back, it always makes sense.

So if you’re in the waiting season, here’s your sign to chill a little.
Keep showing up, but also, breathe.
What’s meant for you is already finding its way. The timing might not be yours, but the story still is.

Trust the process, even when it’s silent, even when it’s slow.
You’re not falling behind, you’re just learning to flow.
