Ever wondered how some people bounce back from setbacks stronger and happier than ever? The secret isn’t luck — it’s resilience! So, this week on Sero Boost: The Happiness Science Insights Podcast, host Marie Stella interviews resilience coach Gina Vild to discover practical ways to build resilience.

An author, thought leader, and speaker, Gina Vild explores the topics of happiness, purpose, and resilience in her work. Gina Vild has not only co-authored ‘The Two Most Important Days: How to Find your Purpose and Live a Happier, Healthier Life’, but she is also currently working on her second book, ‘Buoyant: Learn to Navigate Life’s Troubled Water and Thrive’. Additionally, she writes two columns for Psychology Today, and recently served Harvard Medical School as associate dean and chief communications officer.

In this episode, Gina Vild addresses common misconceptions about happiness — such as the tortured artist stereotype — and sheds light on the common challenges individuals face when it comes to building resilience and happiness.

Together, Marie and Gina Vild discuss key factors that contribute to resilience and happiness, as well as practical habits that help in developing resilience. So, whether you’re facing a tough time or simply want to future-proof your happiness, tune in to this episode for tips on transforming setbacks into stepping stones for a happier, more resilient you!
