EP 113: 5 practices for resilience in crisis | Dr. Laurie Leitch

In this Radical Responsibility podcast, I chat with Dr. Laurie Leitch, clinical trainer, psychotherapist, researcher, organizational consultant, and creator of the Social Resilience Model. She is also a social entrepreneur and Co-Founder of Threshold GlobalWorks (TGW) and the Trauma Resource Institute (TRI). She also has extensive experience with collective capacity resilience building in diverse and cross-cultural settings. In today's episode, she shares insight on how learning to direct our attention can deepen our resilience and boost our immune functioning. She also offers insights on why Health Literacy is so crucial in a time of crisis.


We also chat about:

-How Appropriate Technology can empower people to become more resilient and independent
-The five skills of her "Social Resilience Model" and how they can collectively help us grow and be more resilient in the hard times.
-A pithy Zen parable that can serve as a touchstone when dealing with overwhelming challenges
