The contributors to this volume are keenly aware that mental health professionals, while well trained to identify and treat psychopathology, are insufficiently informed or cognizant of human resilience, of how, and of what, intrapsychic, interpersonal, and psychosocial factors are operative in adaptive coping with and recovering from trauma. These authors, several of whom themselves were subjected to severe trauma, address the matter of resilience from the vantage point of their own personal and clinical experiences.

This story is not about the small changes that occur in life. It's about the tragic, soul-sucking, and utterly depressing moments that shake our world. It's about the fight we get to embrace to endure the long haul for transformation to be fulfilled. You will read about my 'happily ever after' and how I crawled back from darkness to find a new and brighter light. The joy of this book will show how suffering is necessary to build the 2.0 version of yourself and achieve greatness. This story allows you to recognize the catalyst to happiness and provides the tools to achieve it.I wrote this book because I now understand that there is beauty within tragedy. My wish is to help you grieve freely, accept, transform and find the happiness you deserve. I learned that I am stronger than I ever gave myself credit because I took control and slayed my inner dragon. I will help you start healing by explaining why being kind to yourself is fundamental. I will show you how to live positively despite any circumstance thrown your way. It's not necessary to walk the exact same path as the person next to you in order to experience the same pain. Struggle is relative to your situation and should not be compared to anything or anyone else. Walk with me as I help you accept your new life after tragedy and love all the beautiful beginnings to come.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • From authors of Lean In and Originals: a powerful, inspiring, and practical book about building resilience and moving forward after life’s inevitable setbacks After the sudden death of her husband, Sheryl Sandberg felt certain that she and her children would never feel pure joy again. “I was in ‘the void,’” she writes, “a vast emptiness that fills your heart and lungs and restricts your ability to think or even breathe.” Her friend Adam Grant, a psychologist at Wharton, told her there are concrete steps people can take to recover and rebound from life-shattering experiences. We are not born with a fixed amount of resilience. It is a muscle that everyone can build. Option B combines Sheryl’s personal insights with Adam’s eye-opening research on finding strength in the face of adversity. Beginning with the gut-wrenching moment when she finds her husband, Dave Goldberg, collapsed on a gym floor, Sheryl opens up her heart—and her journal—to describe the acute grief and isolation she felt in the wake of his death. But Option B goes beyond Sheryl’s loss to explore how a broad range of people have overcome hardships including illness, job loss, sexual assault, natural disasters, and the violence of war. Their stories reveal the capacity of the human spirit to persevere . . . and to rediscover joy. Resilience comes from deep within us and from support outside us. Even after the most devastating events, it is possible to grow by finding deeper meaning and gaining greater appreciation in our lives. Option B illuminates how to help others in crisis, develop compassion for ourselves, raise strong children, and create resilient families, communities, and workplaces. Many of these lessons can be applied to everyday struggles, allowing us to brave whatever lies ahead. Two weeks after losing her husband, Sheryl was preparing for a father-child activity. “I want Dave,” she cried. Her friend replied, “Option A is not available,” and then promised to help her make the most of Option B. We all live some form of Option B. This book will help us all make the most of it.
