Therapy isn't just about solving one discrete problem; it's about addressing deeper process issues that can resolve multiple problems in life.

Insight is critical for strategy; it comes from immersing yourself in the nature of the problem and may arise unexpectedly.

Often, it takes a crisis or trauma for people to reach a point where they are motivated to change, as they seek to escape feelings of discomfort. When you can see yourself through someone else's eyes, that's the moment you begin to change, as you start to notice how you've been thinking, acting, and feeling for years.

Real change comes from desire and understanding, not from forcing yourself to change.

To drive change, individuals must demonstrate better alternatives and solutions, as simply trying to reform existing systems may not be sufficient.

Therapy and self-reflection were game changers for me, taking many years to understand my childhood experiences and their impact.

You can't change other people; they only change through their own trauma or insights, and never on your schedule or in a way you prefer.

The person who truly wants to change understands that they must change themselves rather than waiting for external circumstances to change.

Knowledge is more embodied than just looking something up; it requires engagement and connection to truly change you.
