It's a question that can show up as a wail — why is the hard life my life? — or as a quiet curiosity when something good comes your way and you're not sure you deserve it.Either way, it usually starts with the same thing: a comparison. Their life looks easier. Their opportunity looks undeserved when it lands on your doorstep instead of theirs.

This week, Denise unpacks both versions of "Why me" — why they're both fair to ask, where they quietly lead you astray, and a shift in how you ask the question that changes what kind of answer you get back.

Because there is a good answer. You just have to be willing to give it to yourself.
