It’s really designed to help us be honest with ourselves about what kind of obstacles, challenges and even opportunities are in front of us. We might look at it from an internal point of view, where we might have beliefs or opinions, or even you no hesitations or fears that are holding us back and they’re going through our mind and we’re just not making the decision because of all of that noise, that clutter in our mind.  Or it can actually be outside presences. So real things that are happening in the world that prevent us from moving forward and that could be anything from racism or ableism or you know, any of the Monumental obstacles, getting funding, being able to pitch to the right clients. It really depends what that is.
It can also talk about our relationships and our connections and our collaborations.
