In this episode of the Untrigger Yourself podcast, Dr. Peter Hercules and Katrina Hercules explore the third pillar of emotional fitness: resiliency.

Resilient individuals, they explain, don’t just survive challenges—they grow stronger through them. This episode highlights why resiliency is a cornerstone of emotional fitness, focusing on its profound impact on life quality.

Resiliency, they emphasize, is like emotional muscle: it must be built deliberately and from a strong foundation. They explore the concept of "anti-fragility," or growing stronger from hardship, and address the limitations of strategies like exposure therapy, advocating instead for addressing root causes to create true emotional stability. Through practical insights and powerful analogies, Dr. Hercules and Katrina illuminate how resiliency allows us to live fully, not just enduring life’s hardships but thriving through them. The episode concludes with a reminder that resilience is within all of us—it's a choice to rise and grow.
