13. Strengthening The Resilience Muscle


Listen Later

Resilience is the key to thriving in a time of crisis. Resilience is an immensely valuable skill that is like a muscle needing to be used, trained, and built. In this episode, Kelly is joined by Amelie Yan Gouiffes. Amelie is a coach, speaker, and author specializing in resilience building and thriving in the time of crisis. Her experience speaking many languages and living and working all around the world gives her valuable insight into the skills it takes to succeed in times of flourishing and in times of crisis.  

Amelie dreams of a world where we can all belong and become.  

Big Takeaways:  

  • (6:55) If you look at continents like Africa that are used to crises, they are managing much better through Covid than us in the Western world because we aren't used to it. Our resilience is not that strong because we've not practiced. 
  • (12:56) When I worked with communities, instead of telling them what to do or guiding them or advising them, I wanted them to connect with their inner wisdom, their inner knowledge, because it's really empowering when you're able to do that. 
  • (14:42) The main thing I'm hearing from team leaders in Spain and France is: 'Amelie, before Covid I was coming to work and not asking my people how they're doing because we wanted to focus on work... Now I wake up in the morning and the first thing I think is of my people. I don't know how to tell them how important they are to me. I don't know how to ask them about how they feel and listen to what they have to say because I've never done that.
