You’re Not Stuck, You’re Just Asking the Wrong Questions (Here’s What to Ask Instead)

About this episode

Kandia Johnson discusses how asking the right questions can help individuals move forward when feeling stuck in various aspects of life.

Have you ever felt stuck, replaying the same situation in your mind, trying to figure out what to do next, but not actually getting anywhere? Listen, I’ve been there more times than I’d like to admit. What I’ve learned is that feeling stuck often comes from asking the wrong questions, not from lacking the right answers. “How do I fix this?” “Why does this keep happening to me?” “What if this goes completely left?” Why are they like this? If any of these questions sound familiar, in this episode, I’m breaking down how the questions you ask yourself can either keep you spinning or help you move forward with more clarity and intention. Whether you are dealing with overwhelm at work, career unfulfillment, or relationship tension with family or friends, I share a few real-life examples and simple ways to shift your thinking in the moment. This isn’t about forcing positivity or having everything figured out. It’s about learning how to have a better conversation with yourself, one where you notice what you’re thinking, challenge what’s not helping, and ask questions that actually move you forward.
