Clarissa Pinkola Estes, a poet and psychoanalyst, made the following statement: “Asking the proper questions is the central action of transformation. Questions are the key that causes the secret doors of the psyche to swing open.” I know that it can be hard to ask questions or to acknowledge that you don’t have the answers that appear critical to move forward.
