In episode 248 of Ordinary People Doing Extraordinary Things, we are back with our Wednesday segment where I chat with psychologists, therapists and other experts on the science of personal growth. The month of April will focus on Resilience and features medical psychiatrist Dr. Ryan Todd, the CEO of Headversity and performance psychologist who worked as a lead for the Canadian Olympic team, Dr. Karen MacNeill, the Chief Product Officer of Headversity.  This episode will highlight Karen and her work in helping Olympic athletes build resilience.  You'll hear how she works with high level athletes, how and why the Olympics use psychologists, how she builds their resilience and mental fitness, why self-awareness is key, how to know if someone is mentally fit, how to build resilience for an individual and for a team, how building a sports team and a corporate team are very similar, and more.
