Uncertainty is an inevitable part of life. Whether it's the uncertainty of a new job, a relationship, or even the weather, our brains are wired to crave stability and predictability. But why is that? What happens in our brains and our bodies when we face uncertainty, and how can we navigate through it effectively?

On this episode of Building Resilience, we're talking about the universal topic of facing uncertainty. We’ll discuss why our brains see unpredictability as a potential threat and how this triggers a stress response. From career changes and health scares to financial instability and global events, I'll share practical strategies for managing these stressors—and maybe even turn them into an opportunity for growth.
