The Courage of a Leader – Amy Riley: Redefining Resilience: Moving Beyond Survival to Growth

Russell Harvey, known as The Resilience Coach, shares valuable insights on building resilience as a mindset and a practical skill. He challenges us to see resilience not just as recovery from setbacks but as a way to grow, learn, and move forward with purpose.

Russell explores how self-awareness, intentional reflection, and recognising patterns in our behaviour can help us better understand our emotional responses and develop strategies to manage them effectively. Throughout our conversation, Russell emphasises the importance of maintaining energy, building support systems, and staying connected to a clear purpose.

He discusses how resilience is built through small, consistent actions and the ability to embrace challenges with a balanced perspective. His approach highlights the value of grounded optimism, strategic pauses, and leveraging our strengths to navigate uncertainty with confidence and clarity.
