The Threshold Lab

Sit in the Dark

Zach Brandon Episode 45

What if the best way to help someone through discomfort isn’t to eliminate it, but to sit with them in it? In this episode, I share a lesson from a child psychologist that can serve as a useful analogy for how we can lead others through discomfort. Sometimes it's not about fixing or removing the discomfort for others, but rather helping them increase their capacity to handle it.
