Listen "The Resilience Paradox"
Episode Synopsis
There’s no shortage of tools in the resilience toolkit, and yet resilience remains something of a mystery. We still don’t fully understand why some people respond to challenging situations with resilience, or exactly how to prepare for hardship. In his new book, The End of Trauma, resilience researcher George Bonanno, PhD, argues that flexibility is the missing piece. On Road to Resilience, Dr. Bonanno explains how an adaptive response allows us to use the resilience toolkit to maximum effect.George Bonanno, PhD, is Professor of Clinical Psychology at Teachers College, Columbia University.Links:Dr. Bonanno’s official bioThe End of TraumaMount Sinai Center for Stress, Resilience, and Personal GrowthThe Office of Well-Being and Resilience at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount SinaiRoad to Resilience brings you stories and insights to help you thrive in a challenging world.
