Resilience for Real

Have you ever pictured something so vividly it almost felt like it already happened?

That's not daydreaming — it's actually a trainable skill. In this Resilience for Real episode we break down visualisation. It's the mental rehearsal technique Olympic swimmers and a very committed plastic space ranger have in common!

We'll explore:

• How this could work for you
• How Michael Phelps won gold swimming blind — because he'd already rehearsed it
• A Toy Story 5 check-in on Buzz Lightyear, the OG visualiser
• A fully guided visualization practice for anything you'renervous about
• How to make it a habit, not a one-off
