How to use it

After hardship, the honest story isn't "it made me stronger"; self-reported growth is unreliable. It's "here's the meaning I chose to make of it, and here's what I did next."

How sure we are

E Evidence: built from practice. What works for coaches and practitioners. Labelled that way.

P Evidence: promising. Good studies, but small or few. Use it and keep checking.
