Parents At Work Podcast

When ‘bad news’ or unavoidable circumstances at work or home leave you feeling overwhelmed or like giving up - is resilience the answer? That is, is ‘just getting on with it’ or ‘fighting fire with fire’ the best way to deal with adversity. Or is there another way that does not compromise your sense of ease and harmony in the world? Katie and Sam will address some of the common reactions we have when we are faced with adversity and how we might reduce these. They will also explore the roles that acceptance and appreciation play in working with the achy and tense ‘lemons’ of life.
