In this introduction episode of Notes from the Not There Yet, host Bethany Wright shares the story that started it all - the moment she realised she wasn’t lost, or failing… just not there yet.

Set against the backdrop of the Scottish Highlands, this is a story about burnout, belonging, and the quiet realisation that “having it all together” isn’t the same as being fulfilled.

From leaving behind a fast-paced marketing career to rediscovering what truly matters, Bethany unpacks how The Not There Yet Project began — and what it means to find purpose in the middle.

In this episode, we explore:

• The moment that sparked the Not There Yet Project
• What it really feels like to be in “the messy middle”
• Why success on paper doesn’t always feel like success
• How community and connection can reignite purpose

Listen if you’ve ever thought:

“Is this it?”

“What’s next?”

“Why do I feel stuck when everything looks fine?”

Because you’re not behind. You’re just — not there yet.
