- 4:15Speaker 2: you've been avoiding, taking a deep breath before reacting, sticking
- 4:21Speaker 2: to a small habit, choosing kindness when you could have
- 4:26Speaker 2: chosen frustration. These winds accumulate, shaping your confidence and strengthening
- 4:33Speaker 2: your foundation. Day by day. They teach your mind. I
- 4:37Speaker 2: can handle this, I'm capable, I'm growing. Resilience isn't about
