Major life transitions, awareness and exploring

In life, we experience numerous major life changes. This can be anything from birth to death, marriage, divorce, success, school, recognition, failure, trauma, moving, betrayal, being rejected, rejecting another, friendship, celebration, humiliation… the list is long and varied, celebratory and sometimes tragic.

“Our lives are a series of unfolding, linked events that make sense. In other words, in the past I related to the present, and from that trajectory, we can glimpse our future”

(Ibarra & Lineback)
