#22 with Alexander - Where does resilience come from?


Listen Later

Introducing Mr Alexander Arthur! A man packed full of knowledge with a heart of gold and a mission to make this world a better place in whatever capacity he can. Alex's younger years taught him a lot about resilience and the power of refusing to give in to societal expectations as he was repeatedly made to feel less than others due to his Cerebral Palsy. Whilst he hates to admit it, his attitude to life and dedication to his studies is inspiring, not for any other reason than the fact that he is simply an absolute go-getter!

Alex and I spoke about his younger years and some of the hardships he went through - with some super relatable advice on friend groups and toxicity, as well as therapy. We also dived into the pressures of university and how to go about relieving the incredibly high expectations we place on ourselves.
