Quote this month is “Every challenge you face is an opportunity to grow.” Credit given to both Oprah Winfrey and Albert Einstein. So often we are raised not to trust ourselves and to have to rely on others or habits outside of ourselves to be able to function. Resilience is about looking inward and finding our own inner strength that exists to overcome what life hands us. We can do it. It is not easy, but we can do it.
