“Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen.”
-Brené Brown, PHD, LMSW
What is ‘emotional resilience’?
People that work in the helping industry often help others until they are depleted, leaving little time for their own needs. Emotional resilience is a set of skills and trained behavior that helps you find a healthy balance in taking care of yourself, so you stay healthier.
You can’t pour from an empty cup.
By spending time on yourself, you can refill your cup so that you may be able to help others in a greater capacity, while feeling good about yourself and your mental health.

When you do, you see the benefit of feeling like you have a more balanced life, with more energy. You get immediate benefits of removing points of exhaustion.
