How do we develop the resilience that empowers us to be ourselves in the face of change?
How do we learn to be courageous when days are difficult? How do we build our capacity for healing and growth when we can no longer do the things we once did that gave our lives satisfaction, meaning, and purpose?

Whether you’re 17 or 75, if life has thrown you a curve ball, this book can help you get on track toward being yourself in your new normal. With a foreword by Stephanie Spellers.
“In a time of chaos and uncertainty on so many levels, this book is exactly what we need. Building Resilience gives insightful and practical steps to grow in the midst of challenge. It is an integrated approach for the journey and discovers joy and hope along the way.”

“Alice Updike Scannell lived a life in the spirit of Christian formation. Her compassion and concern for the elderly was one that informed, encouraged, and empowered others along their journey. Building Resilience is a must-have that addresses the challenges of life and the navigation of the emotional, spiritual, and physical changes—the culmination of a life well-lived.”—Laura V.
