Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

• There’s a chance encounter or a break years back that quietly shaped my whole life, and I’ve completely stopped seeing it as lucky
• My life feels like a flat list of events with no shape, and I want to find the two or three moments that genuinely redirected everything
• There are a handful of moments where my whole life pivoted, and I’ve quietly decided what each one means
• My life feels like one undifferentiated blur of stuff that happened, and I can’t step back far enough to see the shape of it
• I can picture the handful of moments this year when I felt most alive, but I treat them like nice memories instead of asking what specific setup made them happen
