Designing Through Uncertainty
We all hit those moments — something’s shifting, but you’re not sure what comes next. Maybe it’s a career transition, a lifestyle change, or just a quiet restlessness that’s hard to name.
Uncertainty can feel like a stop sign. But it doesn’t have to be.
You don’t need a master plan. You need one small, meaningful step.
That’s where Designing Your Life offers a powerful shift. This approach invites you to treat your life as something to prototype — not perfect. You try things. You explore. You gather real-world feedback instead of waiting for absolute clarity.
And it works.
By moving from analysis to action, you begin to learn what actually feels right — not just what looks good on paper.
Try Something
Prototyping is about taking a small, low-risk step that gives you insight — a conversation, a short experience, a shift in routine. It’s not about committing to a new direction. It’s about testing one.
The Try Something worksheet helps you:
- Identify a curiosity or “what if” question
- Design a quick experiment to explore that idea
- Reflect on what you learned — and what you might try next
Whether you’re feeling stuck, curious, or ready to move but unsure where to go, this tool can help you get started.
