Episode 120: Pause to Ponder - The Duality of Resiliency

Resiliency is often used to describe strong individuals ... those who push through the toughest of obstacles and emerge victorious. For many, it has become a badge that is worn with honor - a symbolic representation that they were able to overcome.
But what if resiliency isn't always necessary? What if, resiliency is the necessary byproduct of functioning in a dysfunctional world?
In this episode, I explore this concept as it relates to our students and their families and question whether or not the resiliency they demonstrate should be looked upon in inspiration or if it is an excuse used to justify the ongoing perpetration of oppressive and unjust systems.
