Managing major life changes (such as graduation, jobs, relationships)

In this video, we are going to explore how major change events can make you feel, and some actions you can choose to move you toward a brighter future.

Perhaps you (or someone you know) is dealing with a major life change -
redundancy, starting work with a new team, graduating high school or university, moving into retirement, or perhaps your personal life has changed with the ending of friendships or a break up.

Major events and changes will happen in everyone’s life, and those events can trigger a range of emotions. The key to remember is that you are always in charge of your responses and your own experience in life, so regardless of how you are feeling, eventually you need to work to accept the current situation and move forward in a way that will help you achieve the life you want.

We hope this video will either help you in understanding and supporting someone dealing with significant change, or will help you take back a degree of control in managing the situation yourself.

Please share this video with your friends, family, or professional & social networks if you feel that they may know someone that will benefit.

It’s important to recognise that major changes, even if they are positive on the surface, still require time to process and still represent a sense of loss.
