Resilience - helping people recover their capacities to deal with any adversity, stress, loss or trauma – is the heart of my work as a licensed psychotherapist (25 years) and an international trainer of mental health professionals (more than a decade). Bouncing Back is the book I wanted to be able to hand my clients to help them learn to use the capacities of resilience innate in their brains to develop more effective patterns of response to life crises and catastrophes. No such book was available at the time, so I wrote my own. It has become a tremendous resource for people to learn to how to be more resilient, and to learn that they can learn.

I think that we’re all a Work In Progress whatever our relative levels of success so I’m drawn to people who share that belief, are way out there and are still working on their own stuff. Especially if they’ve managed to do so without becoming a righteous arse in the process. ‘Cos I want reasons to be reminded how incredible it can be to use as much of what we’ve been given and be ALIVE in every sense of the word. I want to keep learning and growing and getting stronger and faster and more bombproof and compassionate and connected as I moved through my fifth decade and beyond. These books really resonate with me – I hope they will for you too.

As someone who is passionate about personal growth, I find that books by authors with compelling backstories offer unique and inspiring perspectives on overcoming challenges and achieving success. These authors have often faced extreme adversity, whether it be in the military, athletics, business, war, or other areas of life, and their stories provide valuable insights into the power of resilience and mental toughness. I admire their ability to overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles, and I find their lessons applicable to my own life. I'm reminded that anything is possible with the right mindset and approach.
