Listen Later

Today we sit down with Mahfuz Chowdhury, a three-time TEDx speaker and renowned expert in the art of resilience. But this isn’t just another conversation about bouncing back, it’s about leveling up. Resilience isn’t just about weathering storms; it’s about what you do every single day to make sure you’re not the same person who walked into them.

In this episode, we challenge everything you think you know about perseverance. We break down why resilience isn’t just about grit but about strategy, how to stretch without snapping, push forward without burning out, and refine your “why” so it evolves with you. Mahfouz unpacks the hidden power of mindset shifts, the necessity of embracing discomfort, and why the smallest first step is often the key to everything.

If you’ve ever questioned whether you’re on the right path or wondered why success feels just out of reach, this episode is for you. The right moves aren’t always the obvious ones, but once you learn how to build resilience the right way, the game changes.
