Life presents us with Big Life Events. Some may call them Initiations. These are the events that leave us forever changed; they mark a distinct “before” and “after” in life. Once these events happen, we know in our hearts nothing will be the same. If we are open to it, they can serve as teachers, calling us into new ways of being. If we are not ready for it, well, then there are still lessons to learn…

Transition is a powerful time - it's the pregnant pause between letting go of one role and stepping into something new. If given attention and space, transitions can be full of magic and possibility. There's often an impulse to rush through transitions - to get to where we think we're supposed to go (I know this feeling all too well). Or we can linger in transitions, finding it difficult to move forward (also familiar to me!).
