I came across a website that dives deep into the Resilience Wheel — and it really hit home.
It reminds us that all parts of resilience are connected. You can be an expert in one area, but still vulnerable if you ignore the rest.
👉 An energy consultant who can’t sharpen an axe.
👉 A crisis responder who can’t recognize a carrot plant.
True resilience means being well-rounded — balancing practical skills, knowledge, and adaptability across all areas of life. The site offers a free Personal Resilience Assessment PDF (for now) and outlines how to build your own Resilience Plan using the “Resilience Wheel.” It’s about charting your progress, setting goals, and seeing where your gaps are — whether that’s food production, energy, health, security, or community connection. I love the idea that resilience isn’t just about survival — it’s about growth, balance, and self-reliance at every level.
