In an impossible conflict, find the third space.

February 1, 2022

When you’re in a no-win situation… for example, you’re in the middle of a disagreement between your husband and daughter. Or your clients are demanding one thing and your boss something different, there actually IS a solution.

You can shift into third space.

Third space is a place we don’t know exists until we’re faced with a situation where we need to move and there’s no rational place to move TO.

Our deepest conflicts in life are an opportunity to find the creative response—the “third space” that embraces the opposing sides and offers an entirely fresh solution or perspective.

The creative process loves this challenge. After all, the deep creative wants to move…in the most expansive, life-giving way.
