Small Windows

Jungian coaching opens windows

As a Jungian coach, I like to think of my work as helping my clients open windows. An open window is an invitation to get a closer look at life outside the confines of our own “space” — to take a breath of fresh air and get a fresh perspective.

Opening big windows can be exciting, but scary — sometimes so scary that we shut them quickly and step away. Or we jump out and wear our liberation like a badge that becomes just another layer of our persona — the face that we show to the world.

But opening small windows feels safe. They invite us to take a peek at another way of thinking, another way of feeling.

I like the small windows. They give us little glimpses that can have big impacts.

But you have to find them. And open them.

This blog is about recognizing something small that serves as a lever to a bigger realization that can lead to lasting change.
