Quick Hits are 10-minute conversations designed to exercise your brain by letting you listen in on an unscripted conversation to hear other people‘s thoughts on a variety of subjects. In February of 2021 I and the members of my mastermind group thought other people might enjoy listening in on some of the lively conversations we were having. But we realized that no one was going spend 90-minutes listening to us going on about anything and sometimes nothing. Instead, we decided to pick one topic and have a short conversation to share. I took the reigns because facilitating those types of conversations sounded like fun. Over the course of a few months it grew from just members of our mastermind group to four (sometimes three if schedules go sideways) people from various parts of the world and from ”short” to exactly 10-minutes. Thus was born ”Quick Hits” hosted by me, Dr Robyn. I hope to get caught up with posting them here on PodBean at some point. As of this writing, I have over 100 ”episodes.” If you‘d like to see the videos of these conversations, they are available on my YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/DrRobynQuickHits If you have a topic you‘d like to hear discussed, I encouraged you to use the contact page of my website: https://drrobynodegaard.com/ to let me know.

Alexi Bracey started us off by that accepting that mistakes will happen is part of being resilient for her. Not expecting perfection makes it easier to move forward when things don’t go as planned. She also recommends doing things to take care of yourself and feed your soul.
Mario P. Fields says that there are things in life that you go into knowing they will be a challenge, going into the Marines for example. Other times, things come at you out of left field. He likes to look back at things and ask himself how he came through it and learn from it.
For Chelle Shapiro she never questions if or how she will make it through something. Instead, she believes “I will make it.” She takes the insult of people telling her she can’t or won’t make it as fuel to push her forward to prove that not only can she make it, she will. Not just to prove them wrong, but more importantly, to prove herself right.
For me what looks like resilience is actually the story of me just doing whatever the next thing was that needed to be done. I wasn’t trying to create some grand plan. I was just trying to live from one day to the next. It is only in retrospect, when I tell the story that it looks like resilience.
The last question I asked the panel was what advice they would give someone who is going through something right now who really needs to be resilient. Their answers were inspiring.
What has made you resilient and able to bounce back from adversity and what advice do you have for others about being resilient?
