In this episode of the Fresh Perspective on Business Podcast, Laura sits down with Ashley Costello; Psychotherapist, Author, TEDx Speaker, and Founder of The Resilient Kid to explore the true meaning of resilience and how it develops in both children and adults.

Together, they unpack the emotional and behavioural foundations of resilience, the importance of boundaries, and the practical tools people can use to rebuild confidence when life or work feels overwhelming. Ashley also discusses the evolution of her award-winning organisation and how her work now supports families as well as corporate teams navigating everyday challenges.

The conversation highlights the parallels between the resilience children need as they grow and the resilience employees need in fast-paced, high-pressure workplaces. Listeners gain insight into how resilience can be taught, modelled, and strengthened at any stage of life.

The episode rounds off with the popular Fresh or Stale segment, where Ashley gives her take on everything from Sunday roasts to Crocs and socks, adding a light-hearted finish to a powerful and practical discussion.
