Resiliency The Ability to Overcome Life Challenges E7

Motivational Speaker and Author Steve Welker discussed with host David Steinmetz the concept of Radical Resiliency which he and his wife developed after a horrific automobile accident

The Radical Resiliency concept is ability to recover from difficult challenges and live the life of your dreams. He demonstrates this by utilizing a resiliency triangle: attitude, commitment, and support.

Arizona Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired has been empowering people with vision loss since 1947. Our highly skilled and experienced multi-disciplinary team of professionals offers individualized training utilizing state of the art technologies and proven rehabilitation practices.

ACBVI assists clients in coping with vision loss – with courage and dignity and a “Can Do” attitude. We are proud to provide the resources our clients need to achieve independence and a full participation in the spheres of life they choose.

We celebrate each and every blind and visually impaired person who develops the skills and a tenacity to go to work, go to school, and actively participate in society.

Steve-Welker-Changing-the-Perception-of-BlindnessSteve Welker is a Motivational Speaker and Author who developed the Radical Resiliency training program. He has presented to dozens of groups and organizations throughout the country over the last 15 years.

The program motivates and teaches audiences to be resilient and overcome any challenge.

Concept:
The more resilient a workforce or team is, the happier and more motivated they will be in their private and professional life.
