Phrase to find (one's) footing
Text In this podcast, the phrase "to find (one's) footing" means to know what one wants and feel comfortable in one's situation or circumstances: "After just two weeks in the new job, I feel like I've found my footing and things are going really well." The word "footing" describes one's stability and ability to remain in one place and in control on a dangerous, uneven, or slippery surface: "These boots offer amazing footing, even on ice." Or, "Randall lost his footing and slipped on the oily sidewalk." Finally, the phrase "on an equal footing" means in the same condition, or having the same rights: "Do you think men and women will ever truly be on an equal footing in the workplace?"
