Resilience:
Building the inner
strength to navigate
life’s challenges

Explore practical ways to build resilience
and develop the inner strength to cope,
adapt and thrive.

What is resilience?

Resilience is our ability to adapt and recover when we experience adversity, setbacks, uncertainty, change or difficult circumstances.

But being resilient doesn’t mean that we never struggle.

We are human, and difficult experiences can affect us emotionally, physically and mentally. Resilience is about developing the awareness, skills and resources that help us respond constructively when life gets challenging.

Resilience is not:

Pretending everything is fine
Ignoring difficult emotions
Toughing it out at any cost
Never asking for help
Being positive all the time

Resilience is:

Adapting to change
Recovering from setbacks
Managing our emotions
Looking for solutions and
opportunities
Knowing when to ask for support
Taking care of ourselves
Learning from difficult experiences
Continuing to move forward

Resilience is a human skill

Liggy Webb has spent many years exploring what helps people to cope, adapt and flourish through challenging times.

Through her research for her book Resilience – How to Cope When Everything Around You Keeps Changing, Liggy interviewed more than 100 people from around the world to explore the behaviours and attitudes that help us become more resilient.

What she discovered is that resilience isn’t about having some special superpower. It is something we can develop.

Self-awareness, optimism, emotional awareness, adaptability, problem-solving, healthy relationships and self-care can all play an important role in helping us navigate life’s inevitable ups and downs.

The good news? Resilience is a skill – and skills can be learned.

Resilience at work

Resilient people and resilient organisations are
better equipped to navigate change, uncertainty and challenge.

In the workplace, resilience can support people to manage pressure, adapt to change, recover from setbacks and maintain their wellbeing while continuing to perform at their best.

Liggy works with organisations to help people develop practical resilience skills that can make a positive difference at work and beyond.

From keynote presentations and masterclasses to webinars and learning resources, Liggy offers practical and engaging ways to build resilience across your organisation.
