“Resilience to me means putting one foot in front of the other one and one hand up above the other one, no matter what keep.”
How do you find love when you've never truly known it? That's the question Cedric Edison tackles in this gripping episode of 'Resilience In Action' with Erin Brown. Cedric, a health coach, author, and speaker, opens up about his tumultuous journey from joining a street gang and selling drugs to facing a potential 50-year prison sentence. But his story doesn't end there. Instead of succumbing to despair, Cedric found a way to transform his life entirely.
Erin and Cedric dive deep into what it means to be 'the dude showing up as the dude he didn't have.' Cedric shares how his quest for love and acceptance led him down a dangerous path but also how resilience and inner work helped him turn his life around. Now, he advocates for men to embrace their emotions openly and honestly, challenging traditional norms that often discourage vulnerability.
This episode is packed with insights and practical advice on emotional resilience, empathy, and the power of inner work. Cedric also discusses his new book, 'Articles of Life,' offering listeners a chance to delve deeper into his philosophies and experiences. Whether you're looking for inspiration or practical tips to elevate your mindset, this conversation is one you won't want to miss.
