|Brewing Resilience and Sipping Strength, One Cup at a Time     Guest: Zhara-Marie Mohansingh Hosts: Tamra Douglas-Atkinson   In this episode, Zhara navigated loss and financial adversities. She went through her early part of high school navigating the different forms that the loss of her dad would've brought - or what she titled, 'daddy issues'. The mistrust, the searching for a male figure, the wondering if someone else will die soon - she navigated it all. But through it all, she learnt to adapt and overcome - with the help of God and her friends. Zhara was determined to be the victor of her story and not the victim. With that, even in the face of financial difficulties, Zhara was determined to not let her present situation be her final destination. Zhara knew that the outcome of her life was in her hands.    FOOD FOR THOUGHT: "Think of yourself as the victor and not the victim" -Zhara-Marie Mohansingh ----more---- RESOURCES MENTIONED Brief Resilience Scale - Adapted from the book 'Mastering Adversity: Unlocking the Secrets to Mental Wellness' by Tamra Douglas-Atkinson You may access the scale HERE     SOCIAL MEDIA HANDLES (EMAIL) [email protected]  Click HERE for link to personal Instagram page Click HERE for XYZ Instagram page Click HERE for Podcast Instagram page    Mek We Coffee and Reason Click HERE for link to Instagram  Click HERE for link to Facebook You may also contact us via email at [email protected]       Remember to like, share, and subscribe to this podcast.
