Resilience: bouncing back when you feel like quitting
When life knocks you down… a bad grade, a failed interview, or a project that doesn’t go your way, it’s easy to question your path. But real growth doesn’t come from avoiding setbacks; it comes from learning how to rise after them.
In this episode of the Psych Leadership Podcast, we explore how Resilience Theory and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) can help you bounce back when you feel like quitting. You’ll learn how to reframe negative thoughts, manage self-doubt, and turn failure into forward motion.
Whether you’re a student, recent graduate, or early-career professional, this episode will help you understand the science of resilience, and how to use it to build a mindset that bends but doesn’t break.
🎧 Tune in to discover the tools that make persistence your superpower.
