The Difference between Functioning and Flourishing

According to author Homera Kabir, while most of us can function in our day-to-day lives, true flourishing goes beyond that. It involves finding joy, ease, and purpose, and growing into the best version of ourselves. Kabir shares her own experience of recovering from an eating disorder and feeling that something was missing. She also highlights that many of her coaching clients, who were high-functioning women, experienced stress, overwhelm, and burnout. Kabir explores the concept of positive psychology and how it can help us move from merely functioning to truly flourishing.
