        Bio:

        Meri McCoy-Thompson

        As Executive Director of Dovetail Learning, Meri shares with clients how the We Are Resilient approach might help with healing and helping them both get back up again and thrive.  In their most recent book, The Heart of Resilience: Nurturing Your Inner Strength for a Joyful Life, Meri and her colleague Chuck describe the universal patterns that get in the way of resilience (Cultural Patterns and Protective Patterns) and teach others how to access Resilient Mindsets and Centering Skills. These practical skills transform us from a victim mentality into whole, authentic human beings with agency, autonomy, and compassion. The book captures more than 100 personal stories of resilience challenges and transformation!
