I want to start this episode by introducing a thought that the way we've been looking at resilience is completely wrong and confusing. It’s actually creating a foundation in our lives that is profoundly unhelpful.

So how about we start with this: consider that resilience is there to the extent that the focus is on the activity or the situation, rather than being about the identity. Because when the whole experience is about me and my self-esteem, my worth and what other people think of me, there is zero resilience. So let’s look at resilience in a different way in this episode. 

What is Covered: 

-Why it’s unhelpful to search for resilience within one’s identity

-The power of focusing the attention on an activity or situation

-The lessons on resilience we can learn from sport coaches 

-The key to transforming the current mental health crisis

-Two reasons why securing the identity is the end of resilience

-The liberation we can find in learning and failures
