Understanding your score
0 to 5
You’re in a relatively smooth season of life, with one or two transitions as the priority. This is a good time to build your TQ skills before the next wave arrives.
6 to 10
You’re dealing with a common number of transitions and would benefit from learning TQ skills to navigate change with more clarity and confidence.
11 to 15
You’re likely experiencing real stress and uncertainty from multiple transitions overlapping. The messy middle is real, and you are in it. Support and structure will make a big difference.
16 to 20
Increasingly overlapping transitions are likely leaving you feeling overwhelmed or stuck. This is a signal to slow down, get support, and resist the urge to "fix" everything at once.
20+
You may be in what researcher Bruce Feiler calls a lifequake. Significant, simultaneous transitions are reshaping the landscape of your life. The important thing to know is, you are not falling apart. You are being reorganized.
