    Ep 1: Competence Is Not the Same as Capacity
    Jan 27 2026

    In this opening episode of The Resilient Mind, Ofelia Chapa explores a foundational distinction that often goes unnoticed in conversations about burnout, anxiety, and resilience: competence is not the same as capacity.

    Many high-functioning individuals are skilled, insightful, and capable—yet feel exhausted, anxious, or disconnected beneath the surface. This episode unpacks why pushing through eventually stops working, how nervous system capacity differs from ability or effort, and why burnout is often a physiological signal rather than a personal failure.

    This conversation introduces a more accurate framework for understanding resilience—one grounded in regulation, load tolerance, and recovery rather than self-blame or over-effort.

    This episode is for professionals, caregivers, leaders, and anyone who knows what to do but still feels overwhelmed, depleted, or stuck.
