Episode 186: Has Stress Smacked You In The Face? Smack Back - Learn Greater Resiliency!

The Evolved Caveman w/ Dr. John Schinnerer

Given our recent COVID pandemic, banking crisis, economic difficulties, layoffs, financial worry, relational challenges, depression, anxiety and more, the topic of resiliency has never ever been more important and needed. Resiliency, the ability to bounce forward following difficulty, is a learnable skill. And all of us have been wildly gobsmacked by challenge, stress, and trauma over the past 3 years. Regardless of whether we want to acknowledge it, these past few years are replete with fuckedup-ness. So what do we DO about it? That’s what this conversation with Michelle E. Dickinson, a Resilience Coach, is all about! Listen in now.

Topics covered:

What is resiliency?

How do we become more resilient?

How does a victim mentality enter into our resiliency of lack thereof?

A powerful and enlightening comparison of male vs. female depression symptoms (Hint: Male depression doesn’t look anything like your mama’s depression!)

What has been your personal experience of depression?

How do you coach others to stay ahead of depression?

What are some of the positives that emerge from depression?
