Have you ever wondered how some people manage to sail through very full lives with apparent ease whilst others struggle to get through a day without losing their cool?

Maybe you start your day with the best of intentions but as the stressors pile up you lose your ability to focus and function?

I 100% relate and I can tell you that the difference between surviving and thriving lies in your resilience levels.

In this episode of the podcast (the first in a new season) I share 5 ways you can build your resilience levels to create more calm and emotional flexibility in your daily life.

Episode highlights:

  • A definition of resilience & why it matters
  • Developing the skill of self-awareness
  • Nervous system regulation to recover from stressful situations
  • The power of responding vs reacting
  • Why it's a disaster to let your emotional brain lead
  • How to practice self-care (realistically)
  • The value of daily meaningful connection
  • Re-framing failure
  • Simple ways to shift your perspective and reduce your stress
