  • Episode 1: Momma Sea Turtles Part I - You Can't Make Mistakes!
    2024/09/17
    In this first episode of Resilience Gone Wild, host Jessica Morgenthal takes us to the sandy shores of Singer Island, Florida, where the miraculous journey of momma sea turtles comes to life. These incredible creatures travel thousands of miles to nest on the same beaches where they were born, battling obstacles like heat, predators, and ocean currents, all while showcasing remarkable resilience. Jessica explores the nesting process, from choosing the perfect spot to the care momma turtles take to ensure the survival of their young. With only 1 in 1000 hatchlings making it to adulthood, every decision these resilient moms make is crucial for their species' survival. Key Lessons: Momma sea turtles teach us resilience through their persistence and adaptability. Mistakes are simply learning opportunities. Like the false crawls of a sea turtle, our perceived missteps can help us grow and try again with greater wisdom. Embrace imperfection and reframe "mistakes" as intentional actions that lead to learning and self-improvement. Top Takeaways: No More Mistakes: Jessica shares why we should stop labeling actions as mistakes and instead embrace the learning process. Sea Turtle Navigation: How momma turtles navigate back to the exact beach they were born on, thanks to magnetic imprinting and sensory abilities. Conservation in Action: Sea turtles are critical to healthy marine ecosystems, but human impact threatens their survival. Jessica discusses what we can do to help protect these magnificent creatures. Resilience Tips from the Episode: Embrace Imperfection: Don’t strive for perfection. Learn from each experience. Ignore the Inner Critic: Don’t fear failure—trust your instincts, and don’t let the fear of "making a mistake" hold you back. Practice Mindfulness: Focus on what you’re sensing and feeling without judgment during moments of difficulty. How to Help Sea Turtles: Support conservation organizations like Loggerhead Marinelife Center. Advocate for stronger marine protection policies. Reduce your carbon footprint and plastic use.
