How do we ask the uncomfortable questions?

by | Mar 11, 2026 | Blog | 0 comments

How often do we cut ourselves off from possibility by assuming we already know the answer?

So many times, we decide in advance how things will play out.

In doing so, we rob ourselves of the chance to be surprised. 

We stay in the safe, 

predictable current of the known, 

even while longing for change.

Yet asking a question, 

especially the vulnerable, 

uncomfortable kind 

is an act of courage. 

It’s a way of saying to life…

I’m open. Show me something I haven’t seen yet.

Questions are portals. 

They invite Spirit to step in. 

They stir our unconscious.

And they change the way we stand in the moment.

More aligned, 

more clear, 

more grounded in truth.

It doesn’t always matter what the answer is. 

What matters is that we’ve opened the door. 

We’ve shown ourselves that we are willing to be seen, 

willing to expand, 

willing to live differently.

So I ask you…

What question have you been holding back from asking? 

Where are you willing to get a little uncomfortable, 

so that a new possibility can find you?

I teach more about asking the uncomfortable questions in the newest episode of the Soul Coaching Podcast.
