Resilience by Design: Why Willpower Alone Doesn’t Work
Description
In this solo episode of HER Extraordinary LIFE By Design, host Leslie Gaudet, Self-Care Strategist and creator of The YES Reset Method™, unpacks one of the biggest myths about resilience: that it’s built on sheer willpower.
Leslie shares why powering through isn’t strength at all—it’s survival—and how the real cost of white-knuckling your way forward shows up in your energy, your focus, and your presence. Through lived examples and the systems she teaches inside her program, she reveals how resilience is less about grit and more about design: creating resets, filters, and daily practices that keep you steady before you hit empty.
If you’ve ever found yourself saying “I’ll rest later” but later never comes, or wondering why pushing harder leaves you more scattered than strong, this episode will give you a new way to see resilience—not as something you force, but as something you intentionally build to rise clearer, calmer, and stronger on your own terms.
