In this episode with guest Josh Porthouse, a veteran who faced an identity crisis post-deployment, we uncover the role of personal values in shaping self-worth, the art of boundary-setting, and the practice of mindfulness. Listen as he shares his journey of rediscovery, how it centers on the tenets of personal values, and how self-doubt can be a stumbling block.

We explored the value of time, the need for boundary-setting, and the ability to bounce back from setbacks and morph them into positive experiences. And it's not just a personal battle; institutions, organizations, and society play key roles in bolstering resilience.  We also discussed the intricate relationship between resilience, compassion, and trauma-sensitive leadership, especially pertinent for leaders in today's world.

Josh Porthouse is the founder of SDYT Media, a media production company highlighting the impact of personal values through print, digital, and spoken media, and the host of Transacting Value, a podcast and AM radio show highlighting conversations with contributors about the relevance of personal values in burnout, boundaries, self-worth, and mental resiliency. He is active in the US Marine Corps and has used his career in the infantry to develop his self-image, self-reliance, and resiliency. After an identity crisis and breakdown left him a divorced, long-distanced father, he decided that increased distance does not have to equal a decreased impact.
