Description
Episode #156. This episode of personal understanding is a skill for marketers in our ever-changing, challenging yet rewarding profession.
We're discussing resilience - not to be confused with endurance.

In this episode, Drew shares his definition of resilience, building resilience like a muscle and practical models from his book, including the "Five H's" for effective leadership in tough times and BEST LIFE for well-being.
