Episode 123: HOPE IN ACTION: TRANSFORMATIVE RESILIENCE

We continue to revisit "Type R: Transformative Resilience for Thriving in a Turbulent World", by Ama and Stephanie Marston, reviewing the skill of Active Engagement. We introduce and explain the six stages the Marstons identify for "turning adversity into growth". They are: 1) The Comfort Zone, or safety zone, when everything is familiar and unchanged, 2) Disruption, when change comes into our lives, 3) Chaos, a transitional state in which we have little control and yet must stay open to the process, 4) Catalyst, when an "aha moment" or glimpse of something new occurs, 5) Integration, a hopeful time of experimentation and creativity, and 6) Renewal, when we arrive at new confidence and competence, with a new sense of identity.
