A space to belong before you’ve arrived.

The Not There Yet Project is a community-first space for women navigating life transitions, identity shifts, and personal growth in adulthood. Not lost, not behind, just becoming.

A place to pause, reflect, and grow without pressure, perfection, or pretending.

What is The Not There Yet Project?

The Not There Yet Project is a community, podcast, and newsletter for people in the messy middle of adulthood. Those moments where life looks fine on the outside, but feels unsettled underneath.

It’s for anyone navigating change: career shifts, creativity, wellbeing, identity, or simply asking, “Is this it - or is there more?”

There’s no finish line here.

Just space to become - together.

FAQs
Do You Ever Feel Gif with The Not There Yet branding

More than a community. A place to land.

This is a space for people who are doing “well on paper” but quietly questioning what comes next.

Through shared stories, gentle reflections, and moments of real connection, The Not There Yet Project meets you where you are - not where you think you should be.

No fixing. No highlight reels.

Just honest progress, quiet growth, and the reminder that nothing has gone wrong.

Why this exists.

"Hi, I’m Bethany - the founder of The Not There Yet Project.

Like many people here, I spent years doing what I thought I should - ticking boxes, chasing milestones, and wondering why something still felt missing.

The Not There Yet Project began as a personal note to myself - of noticing, questioning, and becoming - and slowly grew into a shared space for others navigating similar life transitions.

Not a brand. Not a blueprint.

A space we get to grow into together."
