This is a used copy of Option B, a compelling exploration of resilience and overcoming adversity. Following the sudden death of her husband, Dave Goldberg, in 2015, Sheryl Sandberg grappled with profound grief and the uncertainty of finding joy and meaning again for herself and her two young children. Inspired by a conversation with a friend who offered a poignant perspective: “Option A is not available. So Let’s just kick the shit out of option B,” Sandberg began to find a path forward. The book delves into the universal experience of loss—whether it be jobs, relationships, or lives—and examines how we confront these challenges. Weaving together Sandberg’s personal experiences of coping with hardship with insights from Adam Grant and other social scientists, Option B shares stories of individuals who have not only recovered from personal and professional setbacks, including illness, injury, divorce, job loss, sexual assault, and imprisonment, but have often emerged stronger. The book offers powerful insights for navigating our own difficulties and supporting others in crisis. It reveals that post-traumatic growth is common, with many people not just bouncing back but actually bouncing forward after devastating experiences. Furthermore, pre-traumatic growth is also possible, with individuals learning to build resilience even without having faced tragedy. Sandberg and Grant explore how to raise resilient children, foster resilient communities and workplaces, and ultimately find meaning, love, and joy in life. As Sandberg writes, “Dave’s death changed me in very profound ways… I learned about the depths of sadness and the brutality of loss. But I also learned that when life sucks you under, you can kick against the bottom, break the surface and breathe again.”
