Resiliency Presentation
​
This presentation is based on my book, “Bella Eve the Bounce-Back Dog,” a story about my resilient  dog and the five resilient tools (Believe, Love, Laugh, Relax, and Dream) she uses to cope with her father’s (my husband) terminal illness and death. The presentation begins with my interactive discussion/explanation about adversity, resiliency, and the five tools necessary to overcome obstacles.
