Dr. Beth Kurland discusses her new book, "You Don't Have to Change to Change Everything: Six Ways to Shift Your Vantage Point, Stop Striving for Happy, and Find True Well-Being." In this enlightening interview, Dr. Kurland explains how she came up with the book's title, the importance of recognizing our strengths and achieving a sense of well-being with ourselves. We delved into the various vantage points highlighted in the book and how they can help us view our emotions from different perspectives.

We talked about the benefits of learning to accept and embrace our emotions. I read a powerful paragraph from the book about "post-traumatic growth" after a loss, which resonated deeply with me. We also explored how to find what is right for us and the possibility of attaining well-being. Dr. Kurland shared her favorite vantage points and how they have helped her and her clients.
