This is for anyone learning to navigate change, struggle, or uncertainty—and still choosing to show up with hope.

———

We all know we’re going to encounter hard times. So although my talk at this year’s @thedolectures was - on the surface - about navigating life with cancer, I wanted the lessons I shared to be universal.

Ten lessons became the core of the talk: ‘Riding The Waves - a manifesto for thriving in good times and bad.’

SWIPE to read the ten.

Huge thanks to @adamjennings all round lovely bloke and design director at Contour, for bringing my manifesto to life. Adam’s been a familiar face at The Do Lectures for many years; I’m so glad I met him at a Do workshop back in 2019. Thanks Adam.

Thanks to @zesanders for her help on the wordsmithery
