About this listen

Who are you when everything you thought defined you disappears?

When your marriage ends, your career collapses, or your beliefs shatter, you face rebuilding identity after loss. From Reactive to Resilient introduces the C.A.L.M. Method for managing emotional reactions and moving forward from awareness.

THE C.A.L.M. METHOD

Through divorce, job loss, and belief deconstruction, Mike Barden discovered much of what he thought was "him" proved to be inherited patterns. This opened possibilities for self-discovery after loss and rebuilding identity through awareness.

Grounded in 184 studies, the C.A.L.M. Method helps you distinguish inherited patterns from your authentic self:

CONNECT with the present moment

ALLOW what is to be as it is

LET GO of your interpretations

MOVE FORWARD from awareness

Discover methods for:

Recognizing inherited reactions versus conscious choices

Navigating identity transitions during life changes

Applying present moment awareness to reduce overthinking

Practicing self-discovery after loss

Rebuilding through C.A.L.M. and eleven practices

WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT

Identity crisis creates cognitive overwhelm.

The C.A.L.M. Method meets you in the fog of crisis.

For listeners:

Managing life transitions like divorce or career change

Rebuilding identity after loss of familiar roles

Seeking practical guidance beyond positivity

Looking for research-backed approaches to managing emotional reactions

Tools for rebuilding identity after loss and developing present moment awareness when everything feels chaotic.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
