Questions for ongoing reflection and dialogue

Robin suggests the following questions for reflection to support you in integrating the content of the session and enlivening your learning journey and process of self-discovery between now and our next session. In Session 7, you’ll have a chance to share your insights, and, of course, you are also encouraged to share your ‘ah-ha’ moments and questions in our ‘Living the New Story’ Facebook Group between now and then. You may also wish to engage in dialogue with each other between sessions by using our Open Zoom line. We encourage you to use this space to engage more deeply with these questions.
