When life feels overwhelming, it’s easy to assume the answers are out of reach. But sometimes, the solution to your biggest problem is one you already have.

Often, when we’re stuck, it’s not because we lack strength or resources—but because our emotions cloud our judgment and make it hard to see a way forward. The good news is that there's a strategy that will help you uncover the tools and strengths you've already used to overcome challenges in the past so you can solve whatever challenge you face now.

Some of the things I share are:

The solution-focused therapy strategy that therapists use to help people uncover their own solutions right away

The one question you need to ask yourself to solve any problem you face

Why you're stronger than you think (and how to gather proof of it)

How to identify what is working already by looking for "exceptions to the rule"

How to overcome negativity bias and reframe your mindset for resilience and growth

A simple but powerful exercise to replicate your past wins in future challenges
