That Sucked. Now What? Finding Magic In the Mess with Dr. Neeta Bhushan
Meet Dr. Neeta Bhushan, host of the Brave Table podcast, and author of the acclaimed book on resilience: That Sucked. Now What?: How to Embrace the Joy in Chaos and Find Magic in the Mess.
A How-to guide that offers grace to the human experience by reminding you that life may catch you off guard, but you can bounce back & even fly forward. - Jay Shetty
