How to build resilience and grit

As  a creative it is vital to be able to build resilience and grit so that you can put your work out there. But what if we have been doing it all wrong? And what if being passionate about your work is actually having a detrimental impact on your health.  In this episode I had the pleasure of chatting about this with Gemma Leigh Roberts, Organisational psychologist and coach. She explains why we have been doing it wrong, and how we can build resilience and grit to build a successful career.
