"Resilience is about taking a situation that could possibly break you and actually thriving as a result of the lessons that you can learn by going through that experience." - Nikki Rogers

As I was preparing for a presentation on the topic of resilience, I  reflect on the difficult situations I had to overcome in my life in order to be where I am now. I couldn't help but think back to a point in my life when I was faced with a difficult situation and thought I wouldn't be able to get through it, but I did. Those experiences that I thought of as a loss or a setback provided a great lesson in my life and showed how I have been able to leverage resilience to move forward in life.

Don’t miss out on this episode as I share a story 20 years in the telling, the definition of resilience in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the three key factors that can impact your level of resilience and ability to recover from challenging situations and move forward.

Other Resources Mentioned:

Thriving Points:

  • Resilience is about taking a situation that could possibly break you and actually thriving as a result of the lessons that you can learn by going through that experience. - Nikki Rogers
  • Resilience is about the ability to go through and survive an experience that may challenge or squeeze you, or even rocks your world. And being able to go through that experience and take the lesson from it and actually grow from it. And use that experience as fuel to come out better on the other side. - Nikki Rogers
  • I can be changed by what happens to me but I refuse to be reduced by it. - Maya Angelou
  • Resilience is not all or nothing. It comes in amounts. You can be a little resilient, a lot resilient, resilient in some situations but not others. And, no matter how resilient you are today, you can become more resilient tomorrow. - Karen Reivich, Ph.D. (University of Pennsylvania Positive Psychology Center)
