Exploring the idea of radical aceptance with a licensed psychologist, author, and host of the Think Act Be podcast Seth Gillihan. 

Life will bring many challenges, death of a loved one, a breakup, a health diagnosis, a sudden change in your plans, a missed opportunity. 

When we let go of resistance, we lessen our suffering. When we accept things as they are, with mindful awareness and open heartedness, we find ease, comfort, flow and peace. We need to learn how to identify when it’s time to persist and when it’s time to accept.

Do you ever wonder what makes some people able to navigate trauma, adversity, life’s difficult situations more effectively than others? 

Are some people naturally more resilient than others or can it be learned? What is true resilience? 

How do you measure a person's resiliency? 

Can we teach our children how to be more resilient? 

This is the topic of exploration today with special guest Jonathan M. DePierro, PhD, is Associate Professor of Psychiatry at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and Associate Director of Mount Sinai's Center for Stress, Resilience, and Personal Growth. Dr. DePierro, a clinical psychologist, is an expert in psychological resilience and the treatment of trauma-related mental health conditions.

He is the co-author of the third edition of Resilience: The Science of Mastering Life's Greatest Challenges

There are 10 resilience factors:

1. Confront their fears

2. Maintain an optimistic but realistic outlook

3. Seek, accept and provide social support

4. Imitate role models

5. Reply on an inner moral compass

6. Turn to religious and spiritual practices

7. Attend to their health and well-being

8. Remain curious, pushing themselves to learn new things

9. Approach problems with flexibility and at times, acceptance

10. Find meaning, and growth during and after their traumatic experience

Choosing to parent differently than your parents is not easy. Today’s episode is a supportive, gentle, uplifting conversation to remind you to continue staying on the path of conscious parenting. Hunter Clarke-Fields, host of the Mindful Mama podcast, author and friend returns to the show again to talk about how you can ditch the unrealistic expectations of perfect parenting, bring intentionality to your communication, practice non-reactivity, restraint and emotion regulation. 

Parenting without punishments not only works but it pays incredible dividends in the long-run. We can totally attest to this as parents of teenagers. 

We share practical advice on giving yourself credit, allowing goodness to come in, dealing with feelings of unworthiness, not believing in your thoughts, staying present and more.
