Heard of the Stockdale Paradox? Neither had we until two incredible expert interviewees in Powrsuit both brought it up. It’s a concept from a Vietnam POW about how to get through seriously hard times - you have to face the brutal facts of how hard things are while at the same time, believing you'll make it through. It sounds contradictory - and that's the paradox. Nat and Kristen dig into why blind optimism kills you faster than pessimism, how this applies to career and life crossroads (plus we share a few of our breakdowns, and what helped!).
