Life doesn’t always go to plan. Change, uncertainty and tough moments are part of all our lives – yet many of us have never been shown how to navigate them well.Join us for a thoughtful and uplifting community evening with internationally respected resilience expert, Dr Lucy Hone.
Drawing on decades of research and lived experience, Lucy will share practical, human insights into how we cope with adversity, adapt to change, and keep moving forward when life feels hard. Her approach is grounded, compassionate, and refreshingly real.
Following her presentation, Lucy will be joined in conversation with Mount Aspiring College principal Nicola Jacobsen. Together, they will explore what resilience looks like in everyday life – across families, schools and our wider community – and what genuinely helps in times of challenge.
Known for her widely viewed TED Talk, Three Secrets of Resilient People, Lucy has a unique way of translating science into ideas that are easy to understand and apply, no matter your stage of life.
This is not about quick fixes or forced positivity. It’s about understanding what truly supports us, both individually and together, when life takes an unexpected turn.
Come along for an evening of connection, reflection and shared perspective.
