> The series consists of five small group discussion that will be based on
> concepts introduced in associated recorded webinars. The webinars will
> highlight emotional intelligence competencies needed for academic success
> and for thriving in research and in your future career. * We will discuss
> the cultivation of skills to help you realize resilience and identify and
> deal with obstacles that get in your way.  *
>
> We tell ourselves stories about what is happening to us and around us. *In
> the second session in this series, we will explore how our self-talk is
> generated and look at ways our self-talk can either help us be more
> resilient or how it can hurt us and hold us back.* We will explore two
> important elements of our self-talk introduced in the webinar, cognitive
> distortions and imposter fears and discuss ways to recognize internal
> messages and input from others that distorts our views of our abilities and
> accomplishments.

> While each discussion session can be attended independently, the material

> benefits to attending the entire series if you are able. Individuals who

> become more resilient and were better able to handle stress and conflict in
