Conquering Challenges Through Resilience and Mental Toughness with Jeff Robertson
Manage episode 504656393 series 2901522
Resilience isn't formed in our comfort zones - it's built through adversity and the choice to keep moving forward. Jeff Robertson, a business coach, has transformed his greatest setbacks into his strongest assets. Jeff shares his journey from losing his law enforcement career to becoming a present and involved father and successful entrepreneur, revealing how mental toughness is developed through intentional choices and reframing perspective.
Jeff discusses how he broke generational cycles by choosing to be the father he never had, despite having no roadmap for healthy parenting. He emphasizes that resilience comes from being honest with yourself, putting effort into every area of life, showing up when it's hard and taking responsibility - his "BEST" framework helps with teaching both his children and clients how they can uniquely showup.
Your setbacks aren't your story's end - they're puzzle pieces that will eventually reveal a bigger picture. Jeff demonstrates how his lowest moment, losing his career due to a DUI, ultimately positioned him to impact lives in ways he never imagined, including a redemptive encounter with the family of the officer who years earlier had arrested him.
