A Podcast About Identity Shift and Life Transitions
Dancing in the Dark is a reflective podcast about identity shift, internal misalignment, and navigating life transitions without blowing up your life.
It’s for women who feel out of sync with themselves — even if everything looks stable from the outside. And yet something feels off.
If you’ve ever thought, “Is this it?“, “I need something that fills my cup, but I worry about taking that first step“, or “I feel lost but I can not explain exactly why,” this space is for you.
This podcast documents the host’s, Helene Christensen’s, identity shift from the inside — as it is unfolding.
Not as a finished story. But as a lived process.
Each episode explores what happens in the in-between seasons of life — when a role no longer fits, when work loses meaning, or when something new is forming but clarity hasn’t arrived yet.

Loss of motivation at work — and why you shouldn’t ignore it
When Something in Your Work Feels Empty and Why Listening Is Not Optional
If you are feeling like your motivation at work is lost, it is not a given that it is burnout, and certainly not that it is a failure on your part. It’s a profound signal that meaning has shifted. This episode explores why listening to your honest feelings and thoughts as a signal really matters.
If your work no longer feels right, ask yourself this
When your work no longer feels like home, the problem isn’t a lack of ambition — it’s a deeper question of meaning. This episode explores why clarity begins with answering one specific question, most people miss.
You’ll get a new perspective on why restlessness in your work life is often a signal, not a failure. How asking “who do I want to help?” creates direction when nothing else does. And why clarity emerges through relationship, not isolation
When you don’t know what’s next, start here
When you don’t know what’s next, the fastest way to find clarity isn’t future-planning, it’s self-understanding. This episode is a deep starting point for your next chapter: not certainty, but direction.
You’ll learn why clarity often arrives through recognition, not strategy. Also, how your “inner library” of lived moments shapes what you trust and choose. And finally, how agency grows when you honour what you’ve already survived
You can’t start a fire without a spark
Welcome to the first episode of Dancing in the Dark. This is the beginning. A warm, honest introduction to Dancing in the Dark, a space for you who can feel that something in your life is shifting, even if you don’t have the words for it yet.
This episode is about how you recognize an identity transition while you’re still inside it. And why feeling unclear is often a healthy sign, not a problem. And, finally, how to begin a new chapter without a finished plan.
