Episode 23: How to Bounce Back Better with Dean Fitch Artwork

The Well-Tended Life

The Well-Tended Life Podcast is all about intentional living, that’s inspired by my great-great-grandmother’s classic book “The Secret Garden”. A Well-Tended Life is not a set it and forget it life, nor is it a perfect life. It is worked on every day, in the sunshine and through the storms. And the truth is, what worked in our life-gardens last season, may not work in the next. That’s why here at The Well-Tended Life Podcast, we interview people who have grown and bloomed true in a variety of seasons and are willing to share their well-tended wisdom and weed-whacking advice with us!This season we are going to talk about: Rest, Fear, Addiction, Busyness, Growth, grief, Friendship, Relationships, Time Management, Self Care, Pivots, Expectations, Wandering, Gratitude, Overcoming, Hard Work, Goals/Intentions, Relationships, Health, Fitness, Change, Secrets, Letting Go, and so much More! So, meet me back here each week and we will dig in together to discover what’s keeping you locked up tighter than The Secret Garden and unearth the tools that will keep you growing and blooming through every season.“Where you tend a rose…a thistle cannot grow.” - The Secret Garden

Episode 23: How to Bounce Back Better with Dean Fitch

January 25, 2023 • Keri Wilt • Season 2 • Episode 23

WHY LISTEN?
Here are just a few HEART TAPS from this amazing episode with DEAN FITCH:

Resilience to him really means to bounce back and to bounce back better, not just enduring or adapting, or recovering quickly, but to spring forth as a better version of yourself.
Your strengths are usually hiding in plain view.
4 Key Traits of Resilience that YOU CAN DEVELOP: optimism, kindness, humility, and connection.
Optimism breeds resilience.
Remember the exceptions!! Everything is not all bad, so focus on the exceptions to get a foothold on optimism.
You find what you are looking for, so look for the good.
It’s important that we practice and prioritize self care.
Don’t forget that little things add up to big things.
Lean in more to the things that make you feel good.
Know your why.
You don’t need a personal crisis or a stage in life to go wait a minute, what matters most to me, who am I, what do I want to be about, what do I value, what is my mission, and how do I want to spend this precious thing that I have called time.
