How do you get to know yourself? Especially when your are finding ourselves in a new phase of life—whether you're an empty nester or you're just going away to college yourself, whether you're a transitioning in your job in your family roles—knowing yourself is a critical piece of showing up in the world.

When we hit these transition points, it can be a shock to our system because we can lose or become distant from our orientation to ourselves. So when I talk about knowing myself, I'm talking about knowing what I hold sacred; knowing what my values are; knowing who I am in relationship to the people I love in my life... and beyond.

So if you aren't sure about yourself in any area of your life, it can be a little bit of a lonely and scary experience. What I know for myself is that the benefits of knowing myself really well are ever unfolding.
