Philosophy

The way we see ourselves, others, and the world around us is the result of choices we have made. These choices determine how the world shows up or appears to us. We make assumptions. This is no more clearly illustrated than the parable of the missing elephant,  read more here.

Some of the choices are conscious, some are not, but they serve a purpose (or did at some point) in helping us get through life and deal with its uncertainties.

Sometimes those choices, be they beliefs or assumptions, are holding us back. Broadly the parable implies that to see the whole picture we need to step back and question our own assumptions. This is not easy to do alone. . .considering alternative perspectives and exploring our behaviours and experiences with another person allows us to reconnect with who we really are and create the conditions for growth.

Our role at missing elephant is to partner you in this process.
