VET is a way to help to explore the problem. VET stands for Validate, Explore, and Transform.

• Validating emotions means recognizing what the emotion is and naming it. Validation doesn’t try to ignore or change what the emotion is. It is accepting the emotion for what it is... a piece of information.
• Exploring looks at understanding why you are feeling that emotion. Where did it come from and why is it useful information to have?
• The last process is transforming the emotion so you can create the best possible outcome.
