Reframing Resilience

In today’s episode, we talk about what resilience means. Although widely thought to be the ability to soldier on through difficulties, regardless of how you feel, resilience is something much softer. Resilience is looking after yourself, asking for help, and voicing when you feel overwhelmed. Being resilient means having emotional awareness, having support around you, noticing the negative thoughts, and taking a step back to ask yourself what another person would have done. This conversation dives deep into several issues, including why everyone needs a coach and whether a person’s resilience is determined by gender.
