Why You Should Listen to This Episode

If you've ever felt like stress was getting the better of you, or wondered whether resilience is something you can actually learn, this conversation is for you. Serena brings both professional expertise and genuine personal vulnerability — a rare combination. Whether you're a student navigating an overwhelming season, a parent watching your kids struggle, or simply someone looking for a more grounded way to move through difficulty, this episode is a reminder that resilience isn't about toughening up — it's about understanding yourself more deeply.

In this episode:

Serena Klaver joins A Resilience Project to share the inspiring work she and her co-facilitator have been doing on Vancouver Island — bringing the My True Resiliency workshop to university students across the region.

As a professional planning consultant, Serena has developed a program that gives students a practical toolkit for building resilience. The workshop helps participants tap into habits and skills for understanding their emotional needs, while developing healthy responses to stress. She and her co-facilitator have been delivering this program to universities across Vancouver Island, meeting students where they are and giving them meaningful tools to carry forward.

Beyond the workshop, Serena speaks with the kind of hard-won wisdom that only comes from lived experience. In this episode, she opens up about her own journey through loss — and what she has learned about herself along the way.
