CHAPTER ONE
What is Resilience, Really?
Challenge: Acknowledge the Feelings

What loss have you experienced recently? Reflect on it and how you feel about it by asking yourself these questions that you can think through or write your responses:
-
How am I feeling? (Fine isn’t a feeling. 😊)
-
What thoughts or feelings do I have that I haven’t articulated?
-
How have I allowed myself to grieve this loss?
CHAPTER TWO
