We all hit rough patches—whether it's a stressful job, family problems, or just life feeling overwhelming.

What do you do when life throws you a curveball, when you face obstacles, encounter setbacks, or deal with loss? Do you know yourself to get upset, angry, easily overwhelmed and maybe even hopeless? Or do you think of yourself as resilient?

Many confuse resilience with refusing to feel sad, anxious, disappointed or confused or putting on a brave face in difficult times. In reality, resilience is the ability to adapt and bounce back from adversity, not by suppressing negative emotions but by embracing them and moving forward with a sense of purpose.

The good news is that resilience isn't some magical trait you're either born with or not. It's a skill you can build by leaning into three inner and three outer key strengths.

In this episode of Empowerment Solutions, I focus on the three inner strengths: acceptance, optimism, and self-responsibility. These are the foundations that enable us to navigate life's challenges without losing hope and trust in ourselves.

Let's dive into how these can help you find strength even when life feels tough.

Dr Friedemann's Takeaways:

  • Intro: Acceptance as the First Step to Resilience (00:00)
  • Practicing Acceptance and Letting Go (05:25)
  • Handling Frustration and Embracing the Present (08:40)
  • The Power of Optimism (11:00)
  • Building Self-Responsibility (24:10)
  • Embracing Self-Responsibility for Emotions and Actions (31:29)
  • The Role of Inner Strengths in Building Resilience (35:30)
