If you have a question about this talk, please contact Oliver Knight. Brian Pennie is a former heroin addict turned neuroscientist who’s on a mission to show people that change is possible. Since embracing his second chance at life in 2013, he has become a doctor of neuroscience and psychology, a consultant to some of the world’s largest organisations, and the founder of his company, Change is Possible. www.brianpennie.com We are not born resilient, nor does it come naturally. Resilience develops through our lived experiences, forged over time by learning how to overcome adversity. But resilience has its limits, even for the grittiest and most dogged of us, because if you take hit after hit, you’ll eventually fall. That’s why we need to move beyond resilience – learning how to use life’s challenges to our advantage and, ultimately, using adversity as our fuel for growth. With a focus on breathwork, movement, and connection, Brian will deliver a series of evidence-based tools to help you transform life’s inevitable challenges into a way to learn and grow.
