"Mega-bestselling author, teacher and self-help leader Rachel Hollis offers her devoted followers and new readers alike a short guide to seizing difficult moments for the learning experiences they are and finding value in them"-- When it comes to the death of a loved one, divorce, or loss of a job, transformation seems impossible. Grief and uncertainty dominate your days. Hollis shares how to embrace the difficult moments in life for the learning experiences they are, and shows that a life well-lived is one of purpose and focused on the essentials. It is up to you how you come through your pain: you can come through changed for the better, having learned and grown, or, remain stuck in place where your identity becomes rooted in what hurt you. -- adapted from Amazon Provided by publisher.
