Embracing Times of Uncertainty
Embracing Times of Uncertainty
What you’ll learn
Skills you’ll gain
When you’re facing uncertain times, it’s natural to reach for what you think will help: security, a reflexive confidence, absolute truths, and outcomes you hope become certain. But this approach will only leave you more frustrated and nervous than before. The real goal is to learn to live with uncertainty, to find ways to thrive in its midst. In this course, you’ll learn how with your instructor, Sam Bennett. Sam is a bestselling author and a successful entrepreneur who has navigated career uncertainty and life shifts, and coaches others to do the same. She’ll explain exactly why times of uncertainty have such an effect on us, and then give you concrete strategies and tools to begin shifting your fear and discouragement into well-founded confidence and optimism. By the end of this course, you’ll be prepared to let go and find opportunities to thrive, even during the unexpected and uncertain times ahead.
