The Boomer Dilemma: Adaptability, Resilience & Modern Wellness

"Adaptability is the muscle, resilience is the strength, and wellness is the gift we grow when we choose to embrace change." – Kylie Buckner, RN

Show Description

Change is hard — especially when it disrupts our “systems” we’ve relied on for years. From upgrading an iPhone to learning new health apps, many Baby Boomers (and others, too!) feel overwhelmed by today’s fast pace of technology and lifestyle shifts. But what if these challenges aren’t just frustrations? What if they’re actually opportunities to build adaptability and resilience that empower us in every part of life?

In this episode of the Green Glow Podcast, Ember shares the concept of The Boomer Dilemma — how it shows up across generations — and offers compassionate, practical ways to navigate change. You’ll learn why adaptability is like a muscle, how resilience grows from life’s disruptions, and how to use these qualities to fuel your modern wellness journey.

This isn’t about tech or trends. It’s about strengthening who you are, at any age, so you can live with confidence, vitality, and presence.

After listening, you’ll come away with:

• A clear understanding of what “The Boomer Dilemma” is and why it resonates across generations.
• Compassionate insight into how Baby Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z each approach change differently.
• Practical tools for building adaptability in everyday life.
• Why resilience matters — and how to strengthen it through “resilience reps.”
• How all of this connects back to health, wellness, and holistic living.
• An empowering reframe: change doesn’t have to break us, it can actually make us stronger.
