How to Be More Resilient in Work, Life & Loss
"This is hard. But it’s not the end."
In this episode of The 5 to 9 Job, I share one of the most impactful TEDx talks I’ve ever heard—by resilience researcher Dr. Lucy Hone—and how it shaped my thinking during tough seasons.
From career pressure to personal loss, resilience isn’t just a mindset—it’s a set of habits anyone can practice. And it starts with how we respond when life doesn’t go as planned.
💡 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
Why resilient people expect setbacks—and how that changes everything
The power of focusing on what’s still good, even when everything feels bad
One question that can transform how you handle stress, failure, or doubt
How I personally use these tools when facing burnout, disappointment, and overwhelm
👊 This isn’t just motivation—it’s practical psychology you can apply today.

The 5 to 9 Job
Welcome to The 5 to 9 Job—my journal on growth, failure, and figuring life out.
I started this show because I felt this deep need to help people like me…People trying. Failing and rebuilding. The idea was to use the hours between 5pm to 9am to grow. Slowly, my vision expanded and I wanted to do it all, to build a platform to raise others, reflect and share my interests and soon I hit a wall.
Now It’s back to the basics; fewer better episodes. Each week, I share a few reflections, conversations, and stories from guests so make sure you don’t miss out on any episode.
Welcome to my workshop.
