Resilience helps us to manage life's stresses and challenges, so that we can emerge stronger, wiser and more able to succeed. But what is resilience? And how can we develop it?

In this talk, Coach and Psychologist Heather Parker will draw on the scientific research around resilience to uncover what it really means, and practical ways we can build it.

Settle in while we explore the elements of a resilient mindset, and take away tools that can help us build our resilience for the long term.
