Words are a powerful thing—not just the ones we speak to others but the ones we say to ourselves. Words can shape our thoughts, which control our emotions, which ultimately drive our actions. They hold the power to lift us up or tear us down, sometimes in just a moment. But what if we could use words to build resilience, foster growth, and create a life filled with hope and possibility?
On this episode of Building Resilience, I’m giving you a hack of mine—my list of "resilience-building words." These 10 simple yet impactful words can help shift your perspective, calm your nervous system, and keep you moving forward even in challenging times.
This week, I challenge you to notice the words you use and try incorporating some of these resilience-building words into your vocabulary. You might be surprised by how much power they hold.
