The Rocking Chair Test: A Visualization to Clarify What Really Matters
Manage episode 495571530 series 3400806
In this solo episode of Creative Space, I guide you through one of my favorite exercises to help you reconnect with your deepest values: the Rocking Chair Test.
If you’ve been feeling stuck or unsure about a decision, this simple but powerful visualization will help you cut through the noise and tune in to what truly matters. It’s something I use with coaching clients often—and return to myself whenever I need clarity.
All you need is a quiet space, a few minutes, and a willingness to listen to the voice of your older, wiser self.
Let’s take a breath, slow down, and come back to what matters most.
And if you're curious about coaching, I’d love to offer you a free 30-minute discovery call to see if coaching might help you get even more clarity. Book here.
