Resilience & Overcoming Trauma: How to Thrive Not Just Survive by Robert L. Bowers

Surviving is great… but thriving is so much better. Delve into someone else’s story to discover what it takes!
Life will test you at every turn, but never so intensely as when you suffer a trauma.

Perhaps you survived an accident; maybe you’re processing a death or the end of a relationship; maybe you’re haunted by something that happened in your past…

Whatever it is that happened to you, it’s asking you to find a strength that you may not have had to find within yourself before… but it’s there, and you can access it.

Robert Bowers knows this extremely well.

In 2010, he experienced a terrible cycling accident, which planted a seed of resilience in his mind—a seed he would continue to nurture for the next 14 years as he discovered the full extent of the trauma that came with that accident… and faced many more challenges.

Resilience, he reflects, is not about getting through: It’s about bouncing back and pushing forward despite the challenges. It is, he believes, the quality that allows us to thrive… not just survive.

Each challenge you face is an opportunity for growth. Pain is part of the human experience, and resilience is about choosing to rise above our mistakes, push past the challenges, and keep moving forward.

It’s not a skill we’re born with… It’s one we have to cultivate… And that means that, no matter what you’ve been through, you can build yours.

Through sharing his own experiences and reflecting on how he built his resilience, Bowers uses this extraordinary memoir to help you navigate your own trauma and come out the other side stronger.

Inside, you’ll discover:

The detailed, honest, and humbling account of the author’s own experiences following a traumatic accident in 2010
How you can consciously choose how you respond to your trauma rather than reacting impulsively and sinking into negative thoughts
Why your mindset is so powerful—and how you have far more choice in your experience than you may realize
Why you should force yourself out of your comfort zone and try new things (no matter how nervous you are)
How you can plan your response in advance of predictable traumatic events—and why this will make your experience so much better
The power of humility… and how to use gratitude as an effective tool for growth and recovery
The role of faith in dealing with trauma and committing to long-term personal growth
How you can move past the days that make you feel stuck and emotionally paralyzed
And much more.

No matter what you’ve been through, you have a well of strength inside you. It’s not going to take away your pain, but it is something you can draw on to move forward and grow from everything that’s happened to you.

Your goal isn’t to survive; it’s to thrive… and building your resilience is exactly how you’ll get there.

Forget the traditional self-help guide: Follow the narrative of someone who’s been through tremendous trauma, and use his experience to guide your own. You never know what’s on the other side!

Defend Confidently: Elevate Situational Awareness, Secure Your Personal Safety, and Master Concealed Carry by Stephen Mazzagatti

Nobody expects a fire in their home, yet everyone has a fire extinguisher. Doesn’t it make sense to protect your life—and the lives of your family—in the same way?
Imagine walking down a street one day and you hear footsteps approaching behind you. What if you are standing in your kitchen and a stranger appears at your backdoor? Would you know what to do if someone is following you in your car?

These situations might seem like they have come straight out of a crime series but unfortunately, they are very real.

According to the FBI, a violent crime happens every 25.6 seconds. To put this into perspective, the average American spends 26 minutes commuting to work. That gives a criminal 60 opportunities to commit a crime against you in this time alone.

These statistics aren’t intended to scare you. Instead, they are here to inspire you to prepare for life-threatening situations. Instead of fearing the worst, you have the ability to spot signs of danger before they manifest. You can take steps to calm yourself and handle acts of crime with confidence. And above all, you can stay safe!

The truth is that carrying a concealed weapon isn’t for everyone. The right mindset and knowledge are crucial, not to mention the necessary skills. And for those who aren’t comfortable with firearms? There are plenty of alternatives for self-protection and self-defense. But the question remains the same, where do you start?

Picture a book that has the professional skills of a road trooper, a medevac pilot, a paramedic, a cyber crimes investigator, and a unit supervisor of a firearms investigation unit…to name a few. This is exactly what you have here.
