Change Part 2 Understanding and Transitioning Through
CHANGE In A Woman’s Life An email workshop by Jennifer Keitt © 2010 May not be duplicated without permission
Every transition begins
with an ending, a loss . . .
When things change you leave behind
the way things were and the way YOU
were in the previous situation . . .
WHAT IS ENDING? Ask these important questions:
(1) What is ending? Is it a role or an identity? Is it a chapter in your life,
a dream, or a way of looking at the world that has been important to
you?
What is ending for me?
• Role
• Identity
• Certainty
• Meaning
• Plans
• Dreams
• Other
EXERCISE
• Check the items that
apply or add your
own concerns to the
list.
WHAT AM I LOSING? Ask: (2) What am I losing in this change? If you are moving from one environment to another, what familiar places, people, structure, and systems are you losing?
What am I losing or may lose
because of this change?
• Relationships
• Meaningful work
• Turf
• Status
• Stability
• Confidence
• Power or influence
• Comfort
• Structure
• Routine
• Control
• Other aspects of my
world
WHAT IMPACT WILL THIS
CHANGE HAVE? Ask (3) What impact will these losses have on my life? Will my beliefs, attitudes, and values be affected? Do you feel opportunities will be diminished?
What impact will these
losses have on my life?
• Values/beliefs
• Attitudes/feelings
• Choices
• Opportunities
• Limits
• Other
Don’t resist looking at what you have to
lose. Only then can you clearly see what
is ending and get ready to let go.
