Summary
What does resilience really mean? For many people, the word has become associated with simply pushing through, coping no matter what, or carrying on regardless. But what if resilience isn't about becoming tougher at all? In this episode I'm joined by chartered coaching psychologist Dr Rose Aghdami , author of How to FUEL Your Resilience . Together we explore why resilience has developed such a mixed reputation at work, how one conversation with a client changed the direction of Rose's career, and why staying human might be the most resilient thing we can do. Rose also introduces her practical 'FUEL' model and shares simple ways to recognise when we're running on empty, protect our energy, and respond more intentionally when work and life become challenging.
