My favourite bit is about how spaces matter. On some rare occasions that I step out of my home other than for work, I almost feel my mind opening up!
Thanks for this Girish. Loved the trapeze transition example. I am so glad many are realising the importance of that transition as an integral part of their life which should be seen as 'make' rather than 'break'. Many may not yet muster the courage (as you mentioned for different reasons) to do it but the fact that it is being normalised by likes of you gives many a lot of faith- 'we can and it's absolutely alright'. Also lovely how this talk acts as a mini yet flexible guide book how it could be the most constructive trapeze transit, as I would like to call it, where we discover deeply ourselves in connection with others and the outside world.
