"How does someone know where they are on this journey"

As PP says - none of us really do. But, I can tell you that you are at a very early stage and you shouldn't look for any change in the near future. That happens in very few sitches until a good number of months - 6/9+ and often much longer - have passed.

I'm not saying that to depress you. But it may help to free you of 'looking for changes' and help you focus on yourself. I'm more than a year in, and I think if H turned around tomorrow wanting to reconcile, I would feel I haven't had enough time to work on me!!
