Introduction

Welcome to the rollercoaster of life — where emotions are the loops, drops, and sometimes, those bits where you’re hanging upside down, wondering if your breakfast is about to make a reappearance. Emotional strength? It’s not about strapping yourself in and screaming into the void (although that’s totally acceptable on occasion). No, it’s about being the savvy theme park visitor who knows which rides to hit, when to take a breather, and how to keep their lunch securely where it belongs.
