In this episode, we unpack one of the most misunderstood concepts in modern life: resilience. Is it about being unbreakable, stoic, and hard as nails—or is that just what social media tells us?
Our guest draws from decades of experience across psychology, community health, and academia to challenge the "brick wall" definition of resilience. Instead, we explore it as a dynamic capability—something shaped by adaptability, awareness, genetics, and environment.
From Darwinian biology and epigenetics to the pressures of growing up in a post-social media world, this conversation dives deep into:
Why young people face a different kind of resilience challenge today
How true resilience is more about bending than breaking
The origins of the term ‘resilience’ and how it's been misused
What makes individuals, families, and even businesses more resilient
Why your environment might switch genes on or off—and what that means for your mental health
Whether you're a parent, coach, teacher, or someone navigating a tough season, this episode offers a grounded, empowering take on what it really means to be resilient in 2025.
