Although it has been well documented that the key to positive growth in the aftermath of trauma is creating renewed meaning, there is a need for research documenting the specific cognitive processes by which this is accomplished. This article examines the cognition of two high-achieving professionals who are in the midst of restoring meaning to their professional lives following traumatic experiences.Using a case study approach, this article identifies commonalties between both professionals (showing how the use of metaphor, “worldmaking,” and context influence meaning making) and the differences that emerge because of unique life circumstances.
