PROBLEMS worth FIXING: UNCORKED with SANDY RICHARDSON
Manage episode 473872447 series 2940410
If you’ve ever felt like meaningless battles are draining your energy or you’re searching for a problem worth fixing, this is your wake-up call.
Not every problem is worth fixing. In a world obsessed with solutions, we spend too much time patching cracks while the foundations beneath us crumble. In this UNCORK conversation with the questioner, innovator, disruptor, creator, and artist Sandy Richardson, we shatter the illusion that all problems deserve our sweat, grit, and relentless effort. We challenge the notion that simply because something annoys us, it requires our attention. Together, we explore a deeper truth—some problems are symptoms, not root causes. Others merely function as distractions, keeping us too busy to address what truly needs fixing. So, how do we determine which problems are genuinely worthy of our time? And how do we resist the tempting trap of solving the wrong ones?
This episode isn’t just talk—it’s a call to action in which we unpack how to diagnose real problems, avoid the trap of symptom soothing, and embrace the messy, meaningful work of fixing what truly matters. Additionally, we dive into the widening gaps in business, society, and even our lives, questioning whether we’re being lulled into passivity by problems we assume are too big to fix.
Buckle up, listen in, and ask yourself: What problem are you solving? And is it the one that deserves your time?
