Episode notes

When people talk about positive and negative emotions, emotions are emotions. We can't put a label on them as to whether they're good or bad,. What we've got to do is to look at emotions and look at the information that the emotion is communicating to us," he says. "Fear is there to help us to make the right decisions"

This week I had Robin Hills on the show to talk about resilience.

He's the author of the Authority Guide to Emotional Resilience in Business Strategies to Manage Stress and Weather Storms in the Workplace. He's the director of EI4Change, a company specializing in training, coaching, and personal development focused on emotional intelligence, positive psychology, and neuroscience. He has over 35 years of business and commercial experience, as well as spoken keynotes.

We dive deep into what it really means to be resilient, what it isn't, where the confusion may lie and how confusion can rear its ugly head. Robin busts some old myths and how emotions are an important factor.
