Dr Lucy Hone is a global leader in the field of resilience psychology, and spends her life helping people build resilience, cope with loss and navigate tough times. In this episode we talked about how to build resilience, how grief looks different for everyone and how it's important to focus on what's still good in your life when going through loss. 

She also had some amazing tips for coping with the general chaos of life which resonated with me. Ruthless prioritisation and making sure you're working with your own nature to be your most productive self.
