7 Proven Strategies to Master Problem-Solving Like a Pro

Welcome to The Online Prosperity Show, and I'm your host Prosper Taruvinga. This is the number one place where you’ll find exclusive insights into mastering leadership, mindset, and innovation through the real-life journeys of extraordinary individuals. In today’s episode, we’re diving deep into the world of fearless problem solving with none other than Craig Calder — artist, author, advisor, and yes… accountant!

You know you’re in for something special when your guest casually drops that he loves mowing lawns and moonlights as a bold abstract artist, but also used to be a consulting partner at EY. Craig’s journey is anything but typical — he went from high-powered executive to creative problem hunter, shedding old fears and limiting beliefs along the way. Today, he helps teams transform from passive executors into proactive innovators through his business ThinkClear Group and his powerful book Problem Hunter.

If you’ve ever hesitated to take on something big because you thought you weren't that kind of person — whether it's writing a book, speaking out, or starting something new — Craig’s story will resonate deeply. You’ll learn how he went from nearly failing high school English to becoming a published author, and how facing his fears head-on opened up a completely new path of service and success.

Let’s get into this raw, relatable, and downright inspiring conversation.

Craig simplifies the psychology and neuroscience of fear and combines this with insights from world-class problem solvers to offer strategies that unlock high-performing cultures and give organisations a competitive edge. As a former consulting partner and executive, he realized he was doing a lot of telling and not enough doing — so he changed his path entirely.

He faced down his biggest fear — that he wasn’t a writer — by gifting a book to his daughter on her birthday and proving to himself that the belief no longer served him. That mindset shift set the foundation for a deeper transformation. His journey through therapy and trauma work revealed how deeply held beliefs were shaping his identity, and once released, how much creativity and leadership was waiting beneath.

This episode gives you a behind-the-scenes look at the personal and professional evolution of someone who challenged the status quo, turned self-doubt into self-mastery, and now leads others to do the same. From bold leadership to healing the hidden blocks in the mind, Craig’s story invites reflection, action, and growth.

If you’ve ever been held back by fear, doubt, or beliefs that say “not me,” this is your sign to start thinking clear.
