Jonelle Massey - The Miseducation of Empathy

The Bosshole® Chronicles

The modern mental health conversation has taken a concerning turn, according to clinical therapist Jonelle Massey. Rather than building resilience, we've defined wellbeing as the absence of discomfort and the avoidance of challenges—a definition that ultimately leaves us ill-equipped for life's inevitable difficulties. Drawing from her experiences as a former D1 athlete and her work with leaders across various fields, Massey presents a compelling alternative: embrace adversity as the training ground for emotional strength.
