Are you living up to your fullest potential on your own terms?
How are you being resilient without losing yourself?
It is easy to lose yourself while constantly comparing yourself with others in your career or life. But true resilience is not perfection, but rather a very personal journey.
Dr. Taryn Marie Stejskal is the former executive leadership development at Nike and the founder of Resilient Leadership. She is also the author of FLOURISH OR FOLD: The Five Practices of Particularly Resilient People, a book where she breaks down the true meaning of resilience.
Dr. Taryn suffered post-traumatic stress for many years due to traumatic events that happened in her teenage years and felt great shame around the topic. Listen in to learn how she slowly overcame the challenge of shame around something that wasn't her fault. You will also learn how to personalize your resilient journey by being authentic and empathetic in all areas of your life.
