Reflection

  1. About what subjects do you “talk about” what you know rather than “speak from” your experience?

  2. Under what circumstances do you take center stage—and what reward do you get for taking center stage?

  3. Where do you have space in your life to explore ideas and experiences without pressure to agree?

  4. Where would you like to have space in your life to explore ideas and experiences without pressure to agree?

  5. What might emerge for you with such a space?

  6. What small step can you take to make such a space in your life?
