And unlike the streaming platforms, which are designed to hook us and, if we binge-watch through the night, deplete us, Resilience+ is about refueling and replenishing so we can meet whatever challenges 2022 holds with less stress, more joy and endlessly renewable stores of resilience.”Īrianna Huffington will be a speaker at the largest cost-free resiliency conference on the planet, Resiliency 2022 ( resiliencyandhappiness. a feeling that good things will happen and that something will be successful the tendency to have this feeling optimism about/for the future We may now look.
