So many of us women find ourselves in situations where we really question if we will be able to get past the challenge…
Whether that's getting unexpectedly fired, a messy break up, or something happens with your parents and now you have to help take care of them every single day…
Whatever you're struggling with, the only way to get through it is by building resilience – and it doesn’t happen by accident.
And so on this episode of Women of Impact, we’re learning the 6 rules of resiliency from a Holocaust survivor, trauma therapist & resiliency expert with first-hand experience surviving Auschwitz, it’s Dr. Edith Edgar (or Edie as she likes to be called)!
Despite the downright EVIL acts that could have broken her, Edie’s resilience made her refuse to be a victim, and today she’s sharing with us you can build that same resiliency, actually come to terms with your past, and feel good about yourself again – no matter what you go through.
Edie is an amazing and inspiring role model on how to never fall into believing you’re a victim and to always show up for yourself and believe in your worth and never, EVER give up!!

AMAZING QUOTES FROM EDIE:
“The more choices you have, the less you're ever gonna feel like a victim.”
“I was victimized, it's not who I am, it was what was done to me.”
“You can be happy or you can be miserable, it’s your choice.”
“I don't think the forgiveness came without rage. I didn't get over it. I'm not getting over it, but I don't live there."
"I hope you will learn to forgive yourself, that you're human and not running away from it."
"If you leave this room, nobody can really replace you. You're special. You're one of a kind diamond."
"My definition of love is the ability to let go. Let go of the need for other people's approval that you be your genuine self, just the way you were born."
“You can become Mother Teresa and you can become a Hitler. It's your choice."
"I didn't have revenge on my mind. I had on my mind: How can I be useful and do what I can do to let people know that they are survivors?"
"There is no forgiveness without rage. You gotta go through it, but don't get stuck in it."
