In Part 2 of our series on Resilience, Kevin and Niseema talk about defense mechanisms and an internal mechanism called "The Engineer" which wants to keep us from changing. "The Engineer" will work to sabotage any kind of alterations you want to make, even positive ones.
This week's show is centered around learning how to have a dialogue with, and make friends with, "The Engineer" so you can make the changes you want to make.
