It is undeniable that life will, at some point, challenge us. The question is not if this will happen, but when it will happen and how we will deal with it. We may not always be able to control what happens to us, but we can control how we respond.
Our ability to deal with these challenges depends heavily on our level of resilience and bravery. Resilience helps us to withstand and recover from adversity, while bravery allows us to take risks and seize opportunities.
When we take the time to develop resilience and bravery, we open up new possibilities for ourselves and our lives full of authenticity, joy, and love. We can face our challenges with confidence, and we can seize opportunities with excitement and enthusiasm. These are not fixed traits you either have or don't have. You can build resilience and bravery by taking steps to develop them in yourself.
In this episode, we, together with our guest Pamela Brinker will explore different ways in which we can develop both our resilience and bravery – done with full awareness and intention. Pamela will also discuss the power of therapy and how it can help us create the life we know we're meant for.
Pamela Brinker is a writer who has worked as an integrative psychotherapist for over three decades. With extensive training in somatic work, she equips and empowers others to learn and use transpersonal techniques building upon intrinsic, conscious bravery. Having developed over 20 tools and practices, Pamela speaks, teaches & writes about bravery, resilience, and presence during adversity. Her new book, Conscious Bravery, teaches us how to train in bravery using solid concepts, tools, and practices.

Obsessed with Perfectionism, Failing Brilliantly and Brene Brown ft. Laura Cobb
September 29, 2022
•25m
Special Co-host Julie Riga, author of the best-selling book Stay on Course, podcast host of Stay on Course and Leadership Expert, https://julieriga.com

The fear of failure keeps many people from achieving their dreams and living a life of purpose. We often equate failure with not being good enough or not measuring up to some ideal standard.
This way of thinking is actually a form of perfectionism, an unrealistic and harmful belief system. It is the voice in our head that tells us we are not good enough, that we will never be good enough. This voice leads us to believe that failure is not an option.
The truth is that failure is an essential part of the human experience. Every time we fail, we get one step closer to our purpose. Without failure, we would never know what we are truly capable of. We would never push ourselves out of our comfort zones.
In this episode, Dr. Laura Cobb returns with guest co-host Julie Riga to discuss fighting back against this message of perfectionism and how failure can be a path to educating ourselves towards authenticity and greatness.
Dr. Laura is a life coach who empowers high-achieving women to rid themselves of fear, guilt, and shame to proudly and confidently suit up, show up, step up, and speak up at every opportunity. She sees herself as an ordinary woman making extraordinary choices one day at a time.
What You Will Learn From This Episode:
02:05 - Failure leading us closer to our purpose and true calling
05:01 - Failure as a stepping stone to growth
07:42 - Contribution over contamination in a relationship
09:51 - Continuing to learn with every additional experience
11:02 - Why do we feel we need to be perfect
12:09 - The difference between shame and humiliation (Brené Brown)
16:41 - Being perfectly imperfect as a parent
20:13 - Teaching resilience to our children
Resources Mentioned:
- Brené Brown’s Atlas of the Heart
