Building Resilience in Uncertain Times — Parul Somani

Parul shared her journey in getting through breast cancer treatment and these five lessons — how to be resilient and take control of our lives, during the uncertain times. Some of my favorite take-aways:

• Acknowledge the situation, give yourself permission to be vulnerable
• Balance your optimism with reality, so that you won’t be too disappointed.
• Support friends who are getting through hardship
• Find creative ways to stay connected. It’s especially important to do so while we are practicing social distancing from each other.
• Challenges can become opportunities and possibly turn into silver lining events, you never know :)
