Join us for another episode of Friday Philosophies, as hosts Michelle and Wallis navigate big seasons of change through the lens of Post-Traumatic Growth (PTG), a sister theory to the well-known PTSD.

In this energetic and thoughtful back-and-forth, Michelle and Wallis share their personal experiences — breakups, work heartbreaks, and immigration struggles. They explore building resilience and fostering a "growth mindset" through the unique perspective of PTG.

Post-Traumatic Growth isn't about 'bouncing back', it's about 'bouncing forward'— following a path that comes from questioning our core beliefs, appreciating the little things, and persevering through it all.

Key Takeaways

Delve into the Post-Traumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI) and its five subscales - New Possibilities, Relating to Others, Personal Strength, Spiritual Change, and Appreciation of Life

Why traumatic events spark our search for spiritual meaning and the integral role of spirituality in PTG

Learn to build resilience, not through sheer bravery, but by taking small, consistent steps each day
