Navigating life’s shifts can be challenging, irrespective of their nature. Whether they’re positive, negative, intentional, or unforeseen, each has the potential to impact our emotional well-being. While some people might find certain transitions monumental, others might view the same changes as trivial. Common life transitions include beginning college, entering or exiting a job, forming or ending relationships, moving residences, facing the death of loved ones, or achieving educational milestones. It’s vital to allocate time to adapt and understand the emotions these changes bring.
