Listen "Where Does Resilience Come From? with Summer Silva"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, you'll hear:
How trauma from childhood manifests in adult life
What is the "fighting spirit," and why do some people feel like they have it and others don’t?
The power of knowing what you need and using the tools you have developed
Mathew, Dr. Frank, and Summer Silva discuss what happens to children when they are exposed to inappropriate situations at a young age, how she can overcome and not become overwhelmed, and the importance of practicing patience when choosing a partner. Dr. Frank tells us that even when children grow up in less-than-ideal circumstances, having positive influences early on can give them an alternative to aspire to. This rang true for Summer. She knew she wanted to be the opposite of her own mother, and she felt a desire to live up to the example set for her by her grandfather. Today, Summer finds strength in focusing on the things she is grateful for, leaning on her community and loving partner, practicing transcendental meditation, and enjoying live music. She has learned it's not just about having the tools but knowing when to use them as well.
"Strength shows up in a lot of ways, but then there is also your natural instinctual fight or flight. I’m fighting."
