We often get stuck trying to solve the wrong problems. Nine times out of ten, what we think is the problem is not actually the problem. But it can take time to identify the right problem that needs to be solved. Our brain never goes to the actual problem first. It defaults to the problem it believes it can solve rather than the root cause, preventing personal growth.

In this episode, our host is Amilya Antonetti, CEO of Designing Genius and World Renown Human Behaviorist and Strategic Advisor. Amilya talks about how our growth work is always done in the shadow and often requires us to push ourselves out of our comfort zone. She also dives into how our behaviors can restrict self-growth and that we may be conditioned to do certain things, but it's up to us to recognize and address any unhealthy patterns or behaviors.

Highlights:

• Identifying the root cause of an issue
• Finding resiliency by leaning into the shadows and facing the hard truths
• So much of our suffering comes from thinking we can control or are responsible for how we "make" others feel.
