Fruitful Darkness

change and transitions

I saw this beautiful, almost poetic article about how change and transitions impact us. Facing uncertainty and the unknown raises lots of questions and fears for us. We are in strange territory and might not even recognise ourselves. We might feel lost, unmoored from our usual way of being. We’re evolving, growing, responding and taking new turnings. There are risks, doubts and opportunities. Wherever you are on your journey, the black night of despair and not daring to hope, or having travelled and trying to make sense of where you are, even who you are now, there is hope, be assured. I look forward to meeting you and travelling with you on this next stage of your change and transitions. Contact me here for an initial assessment.
