From Risk to Resilience
I’ve always been drawn to stories about people who overcome obstacles and bounce back from adversity. In wars and conflicts, I’ve seen a sacred space where everyday people emerged from tremendous suffering and loss with real-life superpowers called resilience, inner strength and empathy.
Their courage taught me how to face fear and push myself far beyond what I thought my mind and body could manage.
Back on the home front, I realized that I didn’t need to go to Baghdad to be brave. When we step outside of what feels comfortable, we give ourselves the chance to become our most courageous and authentic selves.
