    Feb 18 2025
    In this episode of Resilience Gone Wild, host Jessica Morgenthal dives into the incredible world of tardigrades, also known as water bears or moss piglets—tiny creatures that redefine resilience.

They can hibernate for up to 30 years, bouncing back to life when conditions improve. Jessica breaks down what makes tardigrades the ultimate survivors, uncovering their unique proteins that protect their DNA, their use of trehalose to prevent cellular damage, and what we can learn from their ability to adapt and endure. She also explores the three P’s of resilience—pervasive, permanent, and personal, helping us reframe challenges and develop a stronger, more optimistic mindset. Finally, the episode highlights the importance of conservation efforts and continued scientific research on extremophiles like tardigrades, which could hold the key to breakthroughs in medicine, space travel, and climate adaptation.
