158: How to cultivate joy through resilience - with Dr. Eva Selhub

The Simplifiers Podcast

How resilient is your heart right now and do you feel like you’re in a space to cultivate more joy? If you’ve been following the news, you’ll know that the majority of our listeners in Texas are dealing with the aftermath of a massive winter storm right now. One that has left many of our friends in Austin without power, heat, and running water for 4-5 days straight whilst the outside temperatures dipped down to 0F (that’s -18C)… the lowest they’ve been in decades. Yikes!

It was one of those “once-in-a-century” snowstorms that left people shook to the core. And its moments like these that build resilience and character. You find your true friends and strengthen bonds in your local community and your neighborhood.

My special guest today is Dr. Eva Selhub and she’s simplifying how to cultivate joy through resilience. No matter what hard season you’re going through right now… like those in Texas (or hello, pandemic!), she shares the secrets to shift your mindset now, so you can get back to center and back to finding your joy faster.

Here’s how.

My special guest today is Dr. Eva Selhub and she’s simplifying how to cultivate joy through resilience.

We tackle and simplify all aspects of it, including:

• How she defines the concept of ‘resilience,’ especially for entrepreneurs and small business owners
• Like a high performance athlete who trains their muscles, how to build your resilience through mindset work
• What the 6 pillars of resiliency are and a deep dive into how to practice ‘emotional equilibrium’
• How to avoid the ‘victim’s mindset’ when things seem to be spiraling out of control
• …and ultimately, we talked about stress. It’s inevitable, right? So, how to use stress to our advantage in business and in our lives the next time it happens.

My heart goes out to everyone in Texas that are recovering from it all right now. And if that’s you, I realize that you might want to blip off this episode, thinking…

“I’m nowhere near being in the mindset to think about joy right now… I’m boiling water, I’m still in survival mode!”

And I get that… but my hope is that you stick with us and give today’s conversation a listen. Let it be a balm for your heart as it might spark something new inside you, that’ll help in the healing process. And help you recover emotionally, too.

You can do it, I believe in you!

Q: Are you ready to cultivate more joy in your life? If yes, this one is for you.

It’s time to #DoTheThing!
