Pain is an invitation to seek connection with others who understand our struggles.
Disappointment can be an opportunity for growth and learning when we name the gap between our expectations and reality.
Resistance is a normal part of shaping the future, and movement is the key to overcoming it.
Cynicism can be overcome by cultivating curiosity and a mindset of possibility.
Exhaustion should be addressed through intentional replenishment of what has been depleted.
Change requires experimentation and prototyping to test new ideas and approaches.
Overwhelm can be reduced by seeking clarity and focusing on the present moment.
