Description
Sheryl Sandberg's life was forever changed when her husband, Dave Goldberg, died suddenly at the age of forty-eight. In the aftermath, she was faced with the daunting task of finding joy and meaning again. Drawing on her own experiences, as well as new research from social scientists, Sandberg and co-author Adam Grant explore how we can build resilience and find happiness in the face of adversity. Their book, Option B, features stories of people who have recovered from personal and professional hardship, including illness, injury, divorce, job loss, and more. These individuals did not just recover - many of them became stronger. The authors reveal that post-traumatic growth is common, even after the most devastating experiences, and that pre-traumatic growth is also possible. They offer compelling insights on how to raise strong children, create resilient communities and workplaces, and find meaning and love in life. Through her story and that of others, Sandberg shows that loss can be a catalyst for growth and transformation. Option B is a thoughtful and honest exploration of how we can face adversity with courage and find joy again.
