Three Keys to Resilience When the World Falls Apart

Supporting others is demanding work—whether you're in a classroom, clinic, office, or navigating the emotional intensity of family life. In this season of CAMP Conversations, we’re spotlighting the frontline professionals who give so much of themselves: teachers, youth care workers, nurses, and beyond. But the message in this episode resonates just as deeply with caregivers and parents at home.

Clinical counselor Dayna Haig-Conway opens with a powerful personal story from her time teaching during the 2011 Christchurch earthquake—an experience that forced her to recognize the cracks in her own resilience. Out of that crisis came a deeper understanding of what it takes to sustain long-term well-being.

This episode unpacks three foundational needs for true resilience:


• Connection
• Autonomy
• Purpose

Whether you're leading a classroom or leading your family through tough moments, this conversation offers practical tools and a meaningful self-check to help you realign with your values and protect your energy.
