In this episode of the Untrigger Yourself podcast, Dr. Peter Hercules and Katrina Hercules explore adaptability as a core element of emotional fitness. They discuss how the ability to adjust to changing circumstances is essential—not just for survival, but for a fulfilling life.
Dr. Hercules highlights how fear, perfectionism, and the need for external validation often prevent people from adapting. Those with strong self-worth are better equipped to embrace change, while those who resist it often find themselves stuck, frustrated, or overwhelmed when life inevitably shifts.
The episode also examines the consequences of resisting change, from missed opportunities to emotional stagnation. Adaptability, they argue, is what allows people to navigate challenges, grow through adversity, and engage fully with life rather than merely reacting to it.
The Untrigger Yourself podcast is meant to build on Vivir's mission to heal the impacts of trauma and spread the message that enduring emotional distress from outdated responses is not necessary. Through insights, stories, and reflections, this podcast uncovers the immense potential for personal growth, well-being, and emotional fitness that lie beyond our triggered responses.
Join Vivir founder, Dr. Peter Hercules, and his daughter and co-founder, Katrina Hercules, as they host this biweekly podcast exploring the wide world of emotional fitness.
