The pain itself is real and unfortunate, but it often opens doors to growth. As I told my other guest, failure, if managed well, can become one of the greatest opportunities for transformation. Would you agree?

Something practical, educational, not just inspirational, that could help listeners facing their own dilemmas, whether they're in career transition, dealing with personal challenges, or simply feeling stuck. What's one step or exercise they could use to figure themselves out and take that first step forward?

I can tell you exactly why I connected with that question, because I experienced it myself. Honestly, I think 80-90% of my thoughts on any given day being negative. It's just the way our minds work sometimes, especially when uncertainty is evolved. When we think about future, we tend to naturally default to worst-case scenarios, even when, more often than not,

things turn out far less catastrophic than we imagined. Yet, those negative thoughts can feel overwhelming, very loud, disruptive, and hard to ignore.
