# Growth Through Adversity

Understand that facing serious challenges can lead to genuine growth in three domains: new perspectives on life, improved relationships, and a strengthened sense of personal capability (post-traumatic growth); distinguish genuine growth from toxic positivity ('everything happens for a reason') and from denial; understand that resilience does not mean being unaffected by adversity but recovering and growing through it; develop a personal philosophy for handling setbacks based on meaning-making; explore how to support others going through serious difficulty without minimising their experience
