Description

Notes from the Not There Yet is the podcast for anyone navigating life’s messy middle - not lost, not arrived, just not there yet. Hosted by Bethany Wright, founder of The Not There Yet Project, this show brings you honest conversations, unpolished stories, and practical tools for finding meaning, belonging, and growth in your 30s, 40s, and beyond. Each episode dives into the real journeys of creatives, solopreneurs, leaders and seekers from Manchester, across the UK, and globally - people balancing work and wellbeing, chasing joy, and rewriting success on their own terms. From overcoming imposter syndrome and anxiety, to rebuilding after loss, pivoting careers, or launching side hustles, our guests share the truths behind their transitions and the courage it takes to keep going. Expect raw reflections, resilient voices, and relatable insights on purpose, identity, business, self-development, and wellbeing. Whether you’re sat in a Manchester café, commuting through London, or tuning in from anywhere in the world, this podcast is your reminder that you don’t need to have it all figured out to create a life that feels real. Because growth lives here - in the in-between. Life transitions, 30s podcast, 40s podcast, Manchester voices, UK podcast, imposter syndrome, side hustles, purpose, resilience, creativity, self-development, entrepreneurship, belonging, messy middle, personal growth podcast, health & fitness.
