You can't regulate your way out of a misaligned business
Hello, I'm Melissa
I'm pretty eclectic entrepreneurially, I run all my projects through this company: Fortitude Institute
How Emotional Fortitude is Developed
Emotional fortitude is not an innate trait; it’s a skill that can be developed and strengthened over time, much like a muscle.
-
Practice Mindfulness: Staying present in the moment to recognize emotions and respond thoughtfully, rather than reacting impulsively.
-
Embrace Adversity: Viewing challenges as chances to learn, improve, and become stronger, instead of fearing or avoiding them.
-
Develop a Growth Mindset: Believing that your abilities and intelligence can be developed through effort, learning, and persistence.
-
Cultivate Self-Compassion: Treating yourself with kindness and understanding during moments of failure or difficulty, avoiding excessive self-criticism.
-
Strengthen Your Support System: Building a network of positive relationships to lean on for encouragement and guidance when you need it.

What do you do?
You Don’T Have To Suffer For Any Longer
To develop emotional fortitude, begin by practicing self-awareness to understand your emotional triggers and responses. Then, cultivate resilience by viewing setbacks not as failures, but as opportunities for learning and growth. Actively challenge negative thought patterns by replacing overly critical or catastrophic thoughts with balanced, realistic ones. Develop strong emotional regulation skills by learning healthy coping mechanisms like deep breathing, exercise, or mindfulness instead of avoidance. Finally, build a supportive network of trusted people who can provide perspective and encouragement during difficult times.
begin where you are
With emotional fortitude you can use your full-intelligence.
This is the leadership that is so desperately needed today. It starts with how we lead our Self, and it extends to how we lead others.
High-Stakes Decision Making
When you can’t be certain, time is not on your side and your dealing with high-stakes, it’s a huge advantage to have developed those emotional fortitude skills.
Attuned Business Development
What does building and growing an attuned business even look like? Well, it looks like a business model that starts with core human needs, and extends to a ‘needs based’ strategic approach to marketing, sales and offer generation.
