In today's new Radical Responsibility Podcast episode, I speak with Dr. George Bonanno. We discuss the “The resilience paradox”, and the fact that we can identify many factors that correlate to a resilience type, however this doesn't actually predict who will be resilient and who will not in life. And that given this paradox, Dr. Bonanno offers insight into how we can be more resilient in our approach to life's challenges with a "flexibility mindset".
We Also Discuss:
- How the concept that there is a “resilience type or person” is a myth and how resilience is rather an outcome, or situation specific i.e. every challenge is unique.
- The relationship between traits of resilience and outcomes of resilience, and how flexible adaptation is key.
- The flexibility mindset (optimism, confidence, coping ability) and the flexibility sequence
