In a recent FW Mini Masterclass about the importance of resilience during a major career shift, Jamila Rizvi admits many women in her life have a complicated relationship with the word. On the one hand, there’s the dictionary definition of resilience – the ability to adapt to change – and on the other, there’s the way it’s applied.

“Sometimes resilience is used as a term to tell women to just put up with a situation that you actually shouldn’t have to put up with. ‘You should be more resilient’,” says the FW Deputy Managing Director, who joins FW Founder and Managing Director Helen McCabe for the discussion.
