Sheryl Sandberg and Adam Grant: Option B

Sheryl Sandberg, Chief Operating Officer, Facebook; Author, Option B
Adam Grant, Wharton Professor; Author, Option B
Julie Lythcott-Haims, New York Times Best-Selling Author, How to Raise an Adult; Author, Real American (Forthcoming)-Moderator
Join Sheryl Sandberg and Adam Grant, authors of Option B, as they talk about building resilience and moving forward after life’s inevitable setbacks. After the sudden death of her husband, Sandberg felt certain she and her children would never feel pure joy again. Her friend Adam Grant, a psychologist at Wharton, told her there are steps people can take to recover and even rebound. Option B combines Sandberg’s emotional insights and Grant’s eye-opening research on finding strength in the face of adversity. The authors will share what they’ve learned on helping others in crisis; developing compassion for ourselves; raising strong children; and creating resilient families, communities and workplaces. Many of these lessons can be applied to ordinary struggles, allowing us to build resilience for whatever lies ahead. Sandberg and Grant will discuss the capacity of the human spirit to persevere . . . and to rediscover joy.

As a nurse, I have seen the truth that is talked about here for my whole career. And as a lover of science, I am familiar with the research being referred to here. I love hearing talk about how scientific understanding can help us in such a deep way (in many aspects of our lives/society). I love how you pull a whole lot of core aspects of our humanity together in a way that can tangibly help people. From my nursing experience, I have long said that, in the end, it is our relationships that matter in life. Being a nurse is so very much about "being there" with people experiencing adversity, and doing everything you can to build up what they need for their next steps. It is a gift to us to be allowed in to people's inner circle and we reap the benefits that are described here as resilience (along with a genuine feeling of usefulness in life) And from this discussion, it occurs to me that maybe the reason I've had a lot of happiness in my life is because i work only part time. I am so lucky to have been able to achieve such a balance in my life. I am grateful.
