For all you tree-huggers and nature lovers, this episode is for you. Say hello again to Justin Carter and the last episode’s guest host, Zack Markizer, as they explore what resilience means with this episode’s guest, Dr. Shauna Sobers. Dr. Sobers has facilitated numerous workshops on Clifton Strengths-based leadership and has created The Resilient Tree Model. How do potholes, exploding soda cans, and hot yoga relate to resilience? Listen in to find out how and to learn about Dr. Sobers’ four components of The Resilience Tree: the environment, the roots, the branches, and the fruit/flowers/leaves. Buzzword alert! Self-care is a huge component of resilience, but our hosts delve into tangible self-care and sustainable nourishment. Maybe Fergie was wrong: big girls do cry, we all cry, and it’s okay to cry! Part of resilience is learning to ask for help and accepting it.
