How to use it
- Name one problem that may have practical options; choose a smaller part if needed.
- Brainstorm several possibilities before judging them.
- Compare likely benefits, costs, support needs, and safety.
- Choose a small experiment, then return later to review or change course.
Reflection prompts
- Which parts are within your influence and which are not?
- What support or information would make the next step easier?
- Does this need problem solving, emotional support, or both?
Facilitator guidance
Help distinguish a solvable practical problem from grief, injustice, danger, or an experience that primarily needs validation and support. Do not pressure action when pausing is safer.
Adaptations & accessibility
- Use sticky notes that can be moved between steps.
- Complete only the first two stations in one sitting.
- Add a support person at each decision point.
