Episode 59 - Navigating the Resilient Journey with PTSD - Andew Owlett
Monday Oct 17, 2022
Monday Oct 17, 2022
Are you willing to be vulnerable? Are you able to open up and talk about things that are troubling you? Are you willing to listen to those around you to help someone lighten their load? Both of these things help us to be more resilient.
Hello everyone, welcome to episode 59 - as the Resilience Think Tank presents the Resilient Journey podcast!
I’m joined by Andrew Owlett, security leader and career coach – and today we’re exploring how Andrew is navigating his resilient journey while dealing with PTSD.
Listen as Andrew and I talk about being vulnerable and how it can help you be a better leader, what to listen for to identify when someone else is struggling and why checking in with those around you is so important.
It’s a good reminder that when it comes to those around you at work, you never really know what someone else is going through.
