Challenges and change are an inevitable part of life and whilst much of the future is uncertain, our capability to live life on our own terms doesn’t have to be. Often, we can’t control what happens to us, but we always, always have choice in how we respond and who we choose to become.
As we look to the future how do we emotionally equip ourselves for what is still unknown?
This talk shines a light on the importance personal resilience and taking responsibility has in overcoming adversity. It considers the pivotal role schools could play in fostering the ability of children and young people to bounce back, as resilience becomes a growing consideration within education.
Through frank insights and reflections into her own experiences of becoming resilient the hard way, Emma shares her thoughts on how things can be different for the adolescents of generations to come. Whatever the future holds. Challenges and change are an inevitable part of life and whilst much of the future is uncertain, our capability to live life on our own terms doesn’t have to be.
