There’s no denying that life often presents us with our fair share of challenges, usually in the form of sudden change. Maybe you are experiencing a significant event such as a death, divorce, or layoffs at work. You may be having a hard time moving through and past the emotional turmoil, or you feel completely stuck and like you need guidance getting back on track.
These life transitions, even the positive ones, can throw us into a tailspin and leave us feeling stressed, confused, and vulnerable. But with the right tools and mindset, you can achieve a more authentic and confident version of yourself.
Change Can be Beneficial
Yes, it can! Even difficult adjustments that are neither wanted or expected can influence personal growth. Some times change allows us to see what we’re made of; to become stronger, more confident, and better prepared for what is coming next. With each new challenge, we develop new personal skills and obtain a greater awareness of ourselves.

- Parenting
- Questioning your sexual/gender identity
- Breakup, separation or divorce
- Retirement
- Job loss or career change
