Anjuli Sherin, M.A., LMFT is a Pakistani-American licensed marriage and family therapist specializing in trauma recovery, resilience building and cultivating joy. She has 15 years of practice working with immigrant, South Asian, Middle Eastern, Muslim and LGBTQI+ populations.

In this episode we discuss: 

  • How the concept of joyous resilience differs from what we traditionally think of as 'resilience' 
  • The importance of living joy-filled lives while also contributing positively to the world around us 
  • Why there is no 'right time' to go to therapy 
  • The role community can play in supporting individual and collective resilience 
  • How building emotional resilience can provide support in the face of overwhelming circumstances, both personally and globally
  • Anjuli's own journey toward building resilience as she moved away from Pakistan

Sherin received her B.A. in sociology and anthropology from Mary Washington University and her M.A. from California Institute of Integral Studies. She has trained and mentored with leading figures in trauma recovery and energy psychology, including Richard Strozzi-Heckler, Staci Haines and Vianna Stibal. In addition to awards for academic excellence and community service, Sherin received the 2007 Emerging Leader Award from the E-women Network and has been featured in O Magazine as a finalist for the O Magazine/White House Leadership Project.

Her new book is Joyous Resilience: A Path to Individual Healing and Collective Thriving in an Inequitable World
