By chance, I recently stumbled upon the concept of rubber duck debugging — also known simply as rubberducking — and I instantly connected with it.
Looking back, I realize there have been countless times when simply explaining a problem out loud, whether to a colleague or even just to myself, has led me to the solution.
It’s fascinating how verbalizing an issue forces you to slow down, think more clearly, and often uncover the answer hidden right in front of you.
I’m genuinely delighted to learn there’s an actual name for this method — and a rather charming one at that!
