Recognising the patterns we get caught in — and finding our way out.

About the book

Some situations feel familiar long before we can explain why.

I Know This Shape is about naming those repeating patterns — in relationships, in groups and in the systems we live inside — and about what it takes to find a way out of them.

What this book explores:

  • Recognising repeating relational and system patterns
  • Why familiar shapes are so hard to see from the inside
  • Naming a pattern without blaming the people in it
  • Finding a way out

Human Systems, Book Two — The Pattern.

Once you can name the shape, you are no longer inside it without knowing.
I Know This Shape — Recognising the Patterns We Get Caught In, and Finding Our Way Out, by Sharon Mackenzie

The Pattern — part of the Human Systems body of work.
