These include longer conversations that explore both the extraordinary outpouring of support here in LA as well as reflections of wider fields of resilience.
Allan and I also capture shorter conversations as we travel around, hearing from professionals that have grappled with similar topics across the country and world.
We speak with Joy Gruver from Eastman Chemical about safety blankets, showing up for others, sustainable production of fabrics and hope in younger generations. As Joy puts it, "part of resilience is lifting yourself up from those dark days, being appreciative for what we actually have, and not being afraid to ask for what you need."
I also explore resilience with Torend L. Collins, a career public servant who shares some thoughts on caring for yourself while working on tough challenges facing communities across the country.
