John and Debra developed The Clarity Wheel through years of working with individuals and groups. Originally used for conflict resolution, they soon discovered its greater power–as a tool for communication, self-awareness and personal transformation. Like a prism refracting light, the Wheel helps us break down complex experiences into clear, identifiable aspects of our inner world and story.
