21. Problem Energy vs. Solution Energy

In this episode, Steph discusses the concept of problem energy versus solution energy. The game-changing insight for her? It is impossible to find a solution from a place of problem energy. Problem energy is being focused on the problem, venting, criticizing, complaining, and getting stuck in the details of a challenge or struggle. It is characterized by low-frequency emotions such as anger, frustration, resentment, and hopelessness. On the other hand, solution energy is focused on finding a solution and is characterized by high-frequency emotions such as curiosity, open-mindedness, hopefulness, and joy. To shift from problem energy to solution energy, one can ask questions, become aware of their energy, and take ownership of their thoughts and feelings.
