An excellent essay and metaphor Terri. Plus, is that your artwork at the top? If so, I'm impressed. The first thing that comes to mind re negative space for my business is the unprecedented 2-year break I had from my speaking business during covid. I'd never in a million years have elected to take such a sabbatical on my own, but it gave me distance from a lot of things that I needed to change, and appreciation for things that shone more clearly as my strengths. Not to mention the huge gift of the time it granted with my family. A hugely beneficial reset over-all.
