Prosilience 

Where resilience is an objects capacity to regain its shape after impact, prosilience refers to a person's capacity to grow beyond their original container after such an impact.

The concept is closely linked to post traumatic growth and anti-fragility and originated in the the Touch&Play Project and Tribe.
Rather than attempting to avoid all risk of pain and discomfort, care and attention when the inevitable hurt does arise has the potential to cultivate individual and collective prosilience.
