Great for everyone!

Format: Paperback

This is a wonderful book. It's an easy read and combines stories of real life adversity with a positive and empowering strategies for enhancing resilience and emerging from challenges stronger and in many ways, happier. I love the practical tips and that the content draws from research in positive psychology as well as both the author's professional experience and her interviewee's personal stories. It's a great resource for everyone.
