Meet Amy Pickering

We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Amy Pickering. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Amy below.

Amy , we’re thrilled to have you sharing your thoughts and lessons with our community. So, for folks who are at a stage in their life or career where they are trying to be more resilient, can you share where you get your resilience from?

Building resilience takes time, strength, help from people around you, and faith. Like most people, I have experienced
some setbacks along the way. Building resilience is a continual process of learning and growth, so I have taught myself to surround myself with positive people, be patient with myself, and rely on faith.
Faith builds resilience by helping us to see our current circumstances through a long-view perspective. It grounds our perspectives in hope and keeps us from being weighed down by trying circumstances. My faith in God is really where I get my resilience from!

Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?

Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?

Have faith in the process, a willingness to learn, and a will to persevere. These things have been impactful in my journey, and can be in yours. To foster faith, actively cultivate a relationship with your belief system through prayer, meditation, studying scriptures, engaging in acts of kindness, and seeking forgiveness, while also acknowledging your emotions and trusting in a higher power. To foster an eagerness to learn, cultivate curiosity, set personal goals, embrace challenges, seek diverse learning methods, and actively engage in the learning process by asking questions and seeking feedback. To cultivate a strong will to persevere, focus on setting realistic goals, practicing self-compassion, building a support network, and reflecting on past successes to build resilience and motivation.

Okay, so before we go, is there anyone you’d like to shoutout for the role they’ve played in helping you develop the essential skills or overcome challenges along the way?

My brother has been most helpful in helping me overcome challenges to be successful. As a small business owner himself, he can easily relate to the challenges faced. He is constantly pushing me to be the best. As he is the younger brother, I want to ensure that he always looks up to me.
