In this Tao Dialogues episode, David explores the topic of personal resilience and how to break free from the illusion of helplessness.

How often do you hear the words, “I can’t cope,” echoing from the depths of your mind? Do you mistake emotional discomfort for incapability, allowing fear to weave a web of avoidance? How can we step off the carousel of despair and embrace the effortless flow of life and the Tao instead of clinging to struggle? In this episode, we will answer these questions.
