How do you say "stepping stone" as in "every situation we face is a stepping stone to maturity?"

Just thought of another one. How about "escalón"?

You might hear "trampolín" used figuratively, just like "stepping stone".
Cada situación que afrontamos es un trampolín a la madurez.

Although it doesn't give the sense of it being a series of steps, so I'm not sure. - gintar77, Jul 22, 2011
Used more like "springboard". - gintar77, Jul 22, 2011

Stepping stone = grada, but we don't use it like that. We just say "it is a step forward" or towards your goal or something similar to that.
