Resilience
Resilience defined: (noun) the capacity to recover quickly from difficulty or adversity.
We loved today’s discussion. Within this episode, we talk all about the importance of developing resilience (“rolling with the punches”) by “leaning in” to whatever and wherever the difficulty might be; withing your relationships, your work life, your physical body and your emotional life.
It’s a huge asset to all success!
Thanks for listening!
See you next time! Opening and closing Music:
