Why You Will Cry a Lot in the Middle

Tears Are Not a Breakdown—They’re a Becoming.



No one talks enough about the middle.

That sacred, messy middle where nothing feels certain, but everything is changing.


It’s not the beginning—where you’re full of ideas, dreams, and naïve optimism.

It’s not the end—where clarity and confidence have finally found you.

It’s the in-between.

And yes, you will cry a lot in the middle.


But those tears?

They are not weakness.

They are water.

They are release.

They are rebirth.


Why the Middle Hurts (and Heals)

The middle is where you let go of who you used to be—

But you haven’t fully stepped into who you’re becoming.


It’s that blurry space where:


The old story doesn’t fit, but the new one isn’t written yet.


You outgrow environments and relationships that once felt like home.


You question your worth, your direction, your capacity.


You lose people, plans, and parts of yourself.


You cry not because you’re broken—

You cry because you’re breaking open.


The Power of Crying in the Middle

Tears in the middle are a cleansing.

A detox of every identity you wore to survive.

A farewell to the good girl, the nice woman, the version of you who settled and silenced herself.


Every tear is a sign that your spirit is awakening.

That something deeper is being born.

That your Mastery is pushing through the cracks.


Trust the Tears. They’re Doing the Work.

You don’t need to rush your healing.

You don’t need to “stay strong” all the time.

You’re allowed to weep for the woman you used to be, even if she wasn’t fully you.


The middle is where your fire gets refined.

Where your values get clear.

Where your voice gets stronger.

Where your power gets real.


You’re not falling apart—you’re unfolding.


So yes, you will cry.

You will feel undone.

You will question everything.


But you will also rise.

You will become.

You will emerge more honest, more whole, more you than ever before.


The middle is where Mastery is born.
