A few days ago, a colleague recommended I connect with Chris Barez-Brown.I listened to one of his talks on resilience — and a lightbulb went on.For the past 10 years, I've worked closely with leaders — many of whom attended boarding school. Over time, I've noticed a consistent pattern:Dissociation.Rather than feeling what's happening in the body, many retreat into their heads. Emotions are shut down. Sensations ignored. Connection severed.This is one of the key issues we work on because if we are dissociated we don't lead very well. Dissociation means a lack of emotional intelligence so we struggle to empathise with those we lead. Our communication is poor because it lacks vulnerability and honestyPeople model our actions - if we are pushing through burnout - they will follow.That's when the penny dropped.Because I realised — many organisations are teaching this.They're calling it resilience, but it's not.What's often sold as “resilience” is actually:Numbing your emotionsPushing through exhaustionTolerating dysfunctionIgnoring your burnoutThis isn't strength. It's dissociation.Real resilience, according to leading researchers, looks very different:Acknowledging stress — and honouring itFeeling your emotions — without being overwhelmedRest — knowing when and how to recoverCommunity — staying connected to yourself and othersPsychological safety — feeling free to be you, not just a performerIf we don't shift how we define resilience, the consequences are clear:More burnoutEmployees feeling broken for not being able to “push through”Cultures where emotion is pathologised rather than heldA leadership style rooted in blame, not responsibilityIt's time to reframe resilience — not as stoicism, but as compassion in action.Because when leaders model true resilience, workplaces heal. And when workplaces heal, people thrive.#LeadershipDevelopment #WorkplaceWellbeing #EmotionalIntelligence #ResilientLeadership #CorporateCulture #PsychologicalSafety #AuthenticLeadership #BurnoutRecovery #CompassionateLeadership #TheCompassionateExecutive--- Piers is an author and a men's transformational coach and therapist who works mainly with trauma, boarding school issues, addictions and relationship problems.

Today, we're catching up with my friend, and friend of the podcast, Flint Del Sol.Last time Flint was here, his life looked very different than it does today. He was mid-transition, using they/them pronouns, had just started testosterone, and was still teaching. Since then, he's come out, transitioned in public on his social media profiles, survived doxxings, and received bomb threats at the school where he taught.It's been a lot.He chose to leave teaching and move to the desert with his husband for a while, and they've just recently sold their belongings and moved into an airstream with a plan to travel around the country to meet other trans people and gather stories and information to capture the trans experience in the US at this especially challenging and frightening time. And somehow in all of that, Flint also wrote a book called Teach Like an Ally that comes out on July 29, 2025. This book was written for educators who are struggling in environments where they can't openly state their allyship, can't fly rainbow flags, or can't teach or even have queer books in their classrooms. Even if you're not a teacher, this book will help you be a better ally to the queer kids in your life.Every time I talk to Flint, the conversation tends to go off in a million different directions, but it always ends up someplace super nerdy, and someplace deeply emotional. This one is no different. I hope you leave feeling as inspired and ready to do better work as I did.Check out the full episode to hear about:How having survived blowing up his own life before has shaped Flint's relationship to changeHow genuine curiosity and judgment get confused in ourselves and othersWhy it's totally normal to be at reduced capacity right now, and some ideas to help sustain youWhy even in an unfair, unjust world, it's worth continuing to fight for justiceHow deadlines, outlines, and leaning into his unique voice got Flint to the final draftWhy kids need access to an understanding of queer existence that is not fueled by negativity and hateHow making art is an essential part of how Flint processes events and feelingsFind out more about Flint Del Sol:Instagram: @justflintisfineTikTok: @justflintisfineTeach Like an Ally: An Educator's Guide to Nurturing LGBTQ+ StudentsFind out more about Mackenzie Dunham:Wildheartsociety.orgwildheartsociety.org/downloadsWild Heart Society on FacebookWild Heart Society on InstagramResources:Register for CampDonate to the Queer Community NetworkWild Heart Society MerchSeason 04 Ep 03: Fear vs. Curiosity: Being Alive and Trans with Flint, Just Flint Part 1Season 04 Ep 04: Fear vs. Curiosity: Being Alive and Trans with Flint, Just Flint Part 2"Untitled" (Portrait of Ross in L.A.), Félix González-TorresThe Smithsonian's queer erasure of an AIDS artwork should alarm us allGood Bones, Maggie Smith

When people face hardship, their instinctive response is often to seek extra mercy from Hashem. They might take on new halachic stringencies, elevate their level of kavanah during tefillah , and pray with greater emotion, sincerity, and even tears. They do their best to act with heightened spiritual awareness, all in the hope that these efforts will bring about a salvation. But when time passes and the situation doesn't improve—or even worsens—it becomes increasingly difficult to keep that spiritual momentum going. Some begin to feel that their prayers and efforts are going unnoticed. "If Hashem isn't responding," they wonder, "why should I keep trying?" For some, this disillusionment may evolve into frustration or anger, leading them to distance themselves from mitzvot or religious observance altogether. They may begin to question whether Hashem truly cares. But we must hold on to a critical truth: Hashem cares more than we can possibly understand . The fact that we haven't received what we've asked for is not a sign of divine indifference. Rather, it is a reflection of Hashem's infinite wisdom. He sees the complete picture—past, present, and future. He knows our mission in this world, and what is best for us at every stage, even when we cannot comprehend it. And when the struggle to stay spiritually committed intensifies, our avodah becomes all the more meaningful. Hashem cherishes every sincere effort we make—especially when it is difficult. A man in the real estate business shared his story. His industry had been facing a downturn, and one failed deal after another left him with no leads and growing discouragement. He reached a low point and, for the first time in his life, contemplated skipping shul on Shabbat. In frustration, he told himself he wouldn't go. That Friday afternoon, he had his usual call with a business associate—a non-Jewish Irish gentleman with whom he regularly discussed the market, business trends, and more. Every week, their call ended with the man wishing him, "Shabbat Shalom." But this week was different. As they were about to hang up, instead of the usual farewell, the man simply said, "Okay, go to shul now," and then ended the call. The timing was uncanny. For the first time in decades, this man had planned not to go to shul , and here was Hashem sending him a message—through the mouth of a gentile associate—urging him not to break his lifelong habit. It was a moment of clarity. Hashem had been watching and cherishing each one of this man's tefillot for over fifty years. He didn't want him to miss even one. The man went to shul that night, full of gratitude. He thanked Hashem for the unexpected chizuk , and for reminding him how deeply valued his efforts are. Yes, business may be tough. Life may feel overwhelming. But that should never diminish our trust in Hashem or our commitment to His mitzvot. In fact, when maintaining emunah is hardest, that's when it shines brightest.
