Note 1 - When the Old Story Stops Working

Sometimes the life you’ve built stops fitting. Quietly, without drama, without warning but not to be ignored.

Note 1 is a short, reflective read on those in-between moments when the old story no longer serves you and the next chapter hasn’t fully formed yet.

Written from lived experience, not advice, this Note is for anyone who’s felt the subtle pull of change, the quiet knowing that something big needs to shift, even when everything looks fine from the outside and nobody may understand you.

This Note is meant as a pause.

A gentle reminder that outgrowing yourself is not failure, but part of living fully.

Ideal for: people facing life transitions, reflecting on personal growth, or craving a moment of quiet insight by reading about someone else's journey.

This Note is the first part of the Notes from the In-Between series I am writing - each volume stands on its own, but is part of my life's journey. If this note resonates with you, you’re welcome to continue reading along as I write more, sometimes slowly, sometimes sideways, but always here: LadySamurai's Space.
