Change is an inevitable part of life, but navigating it isn’t always easy. Transition is the internal process we go through when circumstances shift — whether in our personal life, career, relationships, or sense of identity. Even positive change can feel overwhelming when it disrupts our routine, challenges our confidence, or brings uncertainty about the future
Change takes many forms and can impact anyone, at any stage of life or work. You may be experiencing:
Career change, promotion, or redundancy
Relocation or lifestyle shifts
Business or organisational change
Returning to work after time away
Relationship changes or divorce
Identity exploration or personal growth
Family changes, including parenthood or caring responsibilities
Stepping into leadership or taking on new responsibility
Health changes, illness, or diagnosis
Bereavement, loss, or life reset moments
When change impacts your emotional and mental wellbeing, you might experience:
Feeling overwhelmed or ‘stuck’
Increased anxiety or worry about the future
Loss of clarity or direction
Procrastination and avoidance
Low motivation or fatigue
Difficulty making decisions
Frustration or irritability
Imposter syndrome or self-doubt
Feeling disconnected from yourself or others
Decline in confidence or self-belief
Change challenges our sense of stability and identity. It can trigger uncertainty, fear of the unknown, or doubts about whether we’re making the right choices. Transition asks us to let go of what is familiar before we fully know what comes next — and that emotional gap can sometimes feel uncomfortable or unsettling.
I use the 8Wise® Method to provide a structured, psychologically informed approach to navigating change. By working across the Eight Dimensions of Wellness, emotional, physical, spiritual, intellectual, social, environmental, occupational, and financial, we develop practical strategies to improve resilience, regain clarity, and make confident decisions during periods of transition. Whether you're an individual navigating life changes, a leader adapting to new responsibility, or an organisation managing transformation, 8Wise® provides a clear pathway forward.
