What if you could quiet the ‘what-ifs’ and help your team face tough decisions with clarity and confidence?

Today, we’re sharing a simple scenario planning practice that brings perspective to uncertainty-so you can plan for whatever comes next.

Coral and Jessica introduce a practical scenario planning tool: Best, Worst, Most Likely Case. Learn how this perspective-shifting practice, rooted in positive psychology, can help you and your group break out of catastrophizing, validate hopes and fears, and make grounded plans for the future.

Jessica walks you through the steps, shares tips for brainstorming, and explains how focusing on what’s most likely can unify your team and boost decision-making.

Whether you’re facing a big decision or just want to build resilience, this episode will help you put uncertainty in perspective.
