HOPES & FEARS
In this first exercise of Mining Your Life Experience, we invite you to engage in an honest reflection of your hopes and fears.
What do you genuinely wish your life to look like? Or put another way, what are you trying to avoid? And what do you fear your life might become?
The Exercise: HOPES & FEARS
How to do it (Estimated time: 10 mins)

Are your hopes and fears authentic reflections of your desires?
Are they shaped by external expectations (family, friends, culture, religion, etc)?
