Excerpt
How do you stay right side up?
How do you stay right side up in a world that seems upside down – a world that shrinks one minute in global
consequences and expands the next with seemingly impossible demands. One minute we know all the answers.
The next minute, the questions have changed. We all face the dilemma of living in a sped-up, broken apart, too-fast world.
A world in which some of us have been
downsized, rightsized, capsized.
A world in which what was “out” is “in”
and what was “in” is “out”.
Where borders are blurred, roles are reversed, and security is suspect.
A resilient spirit.
That’s what it takes to navigate this world of whitewater change: resiliency. Resilience is finding reason to keep on
keeping on. It’s understanding that the word “no” does not mean “never”. It’s in knowing you can find another way,
another day, another time. And it’s in believing you belong on this earth with gifts to give and nothing and nobody
will stop you.

"Many thanks for the talk you gave at our IT Renewal event. You really created a buzz that was still going on the next day and even Friday after the event. I got one email from a woman who said she went home, read your book and has a whole different attitude now about work. You brought a great sense of what our organization needed and aimed your remarks accordingly. It was a real enabler to the overall success of the session.
Thank you again, and I hope our paths cross in the future."

"It's so nice to hear from you and I have enjoyed reading 'The Resilient Spirit'. It touches my soul. The faith of believing in oneself is one of the most gratifying gifts to have while the other is to share with loved ones to see the same passion of believing in themselves. To say "I love myself and I can do it" with passion, to hear it from yourself! ... Thank you for a touching book and it will be shared with my children, Kelsey and Solveig who have given me more strength and endurance for life and understanding."
