We Are Resilient™ Coaches
Di Cullen
My favorite parts of facilitating these circles are hearing and appreciating people’s stories. Discovering the wisdom of the group together. I learn something about myself in every circle! My passion is to create dynamic, heart-centered communities of deep connection, self appreciation and explosive growth and impact.
Go to Protective Pattern: Hypervigilance
Go to Centering Skill: Breathing
Chuck Fisher
I am moved by the self-acceptance and freedom people gain when “seeing” that their Protective Patterns are normal and useful. When people are transparent with each other, everyone in the group gains self-acceptance. It is deeply rewarding and opens the pathway to really digging into the Centering Skills.

Kristie Cannady
My favorite part of the We Are Resilient™ Circles is connecting with people from all over the country. It is inspiring to learn from each group and help facilitate a community coming together. Sharing real life experience, participants are able to see how we all have Protective Patterns and we all have the ability to strengthen our Personal, Relational and Group Resilience.
Go to Protective Pattern: Attacking
Go to Centering Skill: Letting Go
Bryan Clement
Connecting with other people is one of my greatest joys in life, so the fact that I get the opportunity to do it as part of my job makes me truly grateful. I hope that participants will grow awareness and confidence in their own resilience skills, and that they can find a little peace when dealing with all the struggles that life can bring.
