The Self-Employed Life 231: Faisal Hoque- Survive to Thrive with Resilience
Imagine having more questions than answers about one of the most important aspects of life. That's how I feel about resilience. Are some of us born more resilient? Is there a difference between resilience in our businesses vs. our personal lives? Do we know we're resilient when we're in the thick of it or only in hindsight? Will we regret things we didn't stick out because we weren't resilient enough? Today we have an expert on resilience who's sharing how to go from survive to thrive.

The author of several books, including Everything Connects – How to Transform and Lead in the Age of Creativity, Innovation, and Sustainability and Survive to Thrive – 27 Practices of Resilient Entrepreneurs, Innovators, And Leaders.
