Chapter 10: It's the Story We Are Telling

One of my favorite chapters and parts of counseling. This chapter deals with the story we are telling versus the story we want to tell. I love watching people's eyes light up when they realize the power of this section.

Questions for deeper interaction:

  1. What was the story you thought you would be telling at this point in your life?
  2. What was the story you thought you would be telling with your relationship?
  3. What story are you telling with your life and your gap? Is there a gap?
  4. What do you think about the gap?
  5. Did you recognize any part of your story in the example of the babbling brook?
