Resilience Through the Ages - A Journey of Endurance and Growth

Episode #11 - In this episode, we're taking an inspiring dive into the world of resilience. I'm sharing my personal tales of revolution and war, and how I face losses and challenges head-on, exploring the powerful role of resilience in shaping our lives. We're discussing how resilience isn't just about bouncing back, but about bouncing forward, growing stronger and wiser with each hurdle. We're also looking at resilience through a scientific lens, uncovering the fascinating ways our minds, relationships, and biology intertwine in our ability to adapt and thrive.

As we grow from our twenties through to midlife and beyond, resilience evolves with us, guiding us through the changing landscapes of our lives. We're learning practical steps for building a resilient mindset – acknowledging our struggles, accepting our feelings, shifting our perspectives, and taking one step at a time. Wrapping up, I'm sharing Rumi's profound poem "The Guest House," which beautifully echoes the spirit of resilience by encouraging us to welcome all life's experiences as guides from beyond.
