    202. Why Transitions Are So Hard with Victoria Grady
    May 5 2026

    Why is change so hard? Victoria Grady, an organizational psychologist and expert in adult attachment theory, joins me to discuss the space in between, where you are letting go of one thing and grasping for something new. When my mother died, the Paddington bear she gave me as a child gave me a clue about why and what we can do to make it a little easier for ourselves and others.
