Humor: The Power of Not Taking Ourselves Too Seriously

In this episode of Resiliency Redefined, Dr. Robyne reveals the surprising role humor plays in helping us bounce back from life’s challenges. Through personal anecdotes and research-based insights, she uncovers how moments of merriment, joy, lightheartedness, and a good laugh can create powerful reprieves, even during the darkest times. She also revisits the other four pillars of Everyday Resiliency—belonging, perspective, acceptance, and hope—and reminds us that we are capable of navigating the hard parts of our lives.
