Most people think the answer to their problems is to work harder — post more, say yes more, push through.

But the truth is, reacting like this keeps you stuck. And most problems have an upstream cause, with small solutions that fix them better than last-minute effort.

In this Sunday Session, I’m sharing a quick story on why “walking upstream” beats firefighting, how it shows up at work and at home, and a simple way to install one quiet system in each. 

So tune in, reflect, and ask yourself: where are you repeatedly firefighting — and what’s one upstream fix you can put in your diary this week?
