Resilience Unravelled Podcast
It has been my pleasure to record a podcast over the last 3-4 years with around 200 episodes focussing on the subject of personal resilience. Episodes include interviews with people who have achieved remarkable things boucing back from adversity in the process as well as other experts in the subject. I have included a few episodes here that may help inspire you or inform you around some of the areas of cognitive and emotional resilience.
