Description
For thousands of years, humans have gathered around the bonfire to bond, to build community, and to share stories and perspectives on life. We use our microphones to create our modern-day “bonfire.”
The heart of Radical Resilience is understanding the inflection points of resilience through the lens of our guests, focusing on key moments that transformed their understanding of themselves and the world. Over our “bonfire,” we examine the intentional practices of compassion, transformation, love, forgiveness, grit, and possibility for the future, knowing regular engagement with these concepts leads to new conversations for our brains to have with our bodies and our sense of self. Our guests bring new perspectives for our listeners to consider, reflect on, and practice.
Our goal is to strengthen our resilience muscles and deepen compassion, empathy, and growth through sharing the stories and perspectives of people who see life in ways most never imagine.
