Growing up amidst the swirling chaos of Florida's hurricane season, I've witnessed resilience in its rawest form. As a Floridian, the spirit of perseverance and rebuilding is deeply ingrained in me, especially after facing the wrath of recent storms. This episode of the Weekly Drop is a heartfelt reflection on how these experiences have shaped my understanding of resilience, not just as a regional trait, but as a universal necessity to overcome life's obstacles. Drawing from my time on "The Apprentice" and the wisdom of experts like Dr. Liza Siegel, I explore how resilience was a key factor in the show's selection process, and how we can cultivate this vital trait ourselves.

In this inaugural episode, I share practical strategies inspired by figures such as Alex Hermosi and Tony Robbins—techniques that can transform every setback into a stepping stone. From the simplicity of achieving small daily wins to the profound impact of sensory triggers and social support, I provide listeners with a toolkit for building resilience. By re-framing adversity as an opportunity and embracing the heroic journey within our own lives, we can learn to face our dragons and triumph over them. Whether it's through expressing emotions in a journal or leaning on a friend, I'm here to guide you in turning life's challenges into stories of growth and victory. Join me on this journey to embrace the power of resilience and unlock your potential for personal growth.
