Such a great piece! I definitely think resilience is the practice that enables endurance over time. The more comfortable you get with the uncomfortable the more you can do!
Love this! Honored to be included. I agree re: with you about the difference between endurance and resilience. Resilience is about flexibility -- adapting to circumstances, or reshaping oneself anew because of them). Whereas endurance is basically about pain.
Thanks so much for reading and for the thoughtful feedback! LOVE the way you defined resilience. I'll have to dig around and find the convo you were referencing in your post!
It was from a subscriber event I hosted! I have been facilitating small group / 1:1 convos with subscribers and writers I love (on the platform) all about resilience. I'm going to host several more in November (dates forthcoming). I'd love for you to join -- I'll keep you posted!
I thought this was a great read. I am a person who gets called "resilient" a lot - Accurate, I'd say, though not by choice. I was going to say endurance to me is about doing whatever you need to do to make it through the moment, and resilience is about unwinding those things you had to do and landing back at a mentally healthy place. So I tend to see them as steps in a sequence, where not all people make it through the second step.
The square/rectangle framing is interesting, because that framing comes from the perspective that they're not necessarily sequential, which I find true upon thinking - You don't have to be DONE enduring to start being resilient. Anyways, great thought provoking piece!

Thank you so much! And I love the way you put that—getting comfortable with discomfort is truly my biggest hurdle!
