Eps 115 - Redefining Resilience - From Override to Inner Resourcefulness

Welcome back to another episode of The Re-Mind Podcast with Dr Ashleigh Moreland and David Masterton. This week, we’re diving into Part 2 of our resilience series—and it’s not what you might expect!

Last episode, we unraveled the toxic side of “pushing through” and how the old definition of resilience can lead to burnout, override, and self-abandonment. If you missed that conversation, we highly recommend going back to listen first for context.

In this episode, we redefine what real, nervous-system-aligned resilience looks like.
We discuss:

• Why “inner resourcefulness” is a truer definition of resilience than endless grit

• How to stay present with challenge—without abandoning yourself

• The difference between honoring your nervous system and just overriding it to “get by”

• Practical examples: parenting, leadership, faith, and daily life

• The deep link between self-awareness, capacity, boundaries, and healing

• Spiritual vs. human-level resilience (and why both matter)

This conversation invites you to notice where you might be mistaking override for resilience in your own life. What would it look like to move through challenge with more trust, self-awareness, and authentic capacity?

Reflection prompts:

• Where have you confused override with resilience?

• What old fears or conditioning drive you to push past your own limits?

• If you weren’t afraid, what would healthy resilience look like for you right now?
