How to Transform as You Come Back From Adversity

Hannah, a doll made from a stray sock, is quite a helpless creature.

Hannah sometimes has days with her face in the dirt, like a caterpillar.

When she can’t take any more of life’s dirt, she creates a cocoon for herself,
Where she can heal, rejuvenate and recreate herself.

But eventually the cocoon becomes a prison, and she finds a way to break out.
As she emerges, she discovers that while cocooning, she has been transformed.

Hannah is helpless no longer; she can fly wherever she pleases.

Helpless Hannah has become the Comeback Queen!

By following Hannah’s process from caterpillar-in-the-dirt through spinning a cocoon, you too can find a way to transform as you come back from the adversity in your life.

Featured Quote

Ironically, according to ancient legend, the word Wilderness didn’t conjure up a place of punishment, but rather a place of learning, spiritual growth, understanding, healing, and accomplishment. It referred to a wellspring of Divine energy in the guise of despair, hardship and pain; your experience in the wilderness was designed to prepare or propel you toward your destiny. Or pry you loose from whatever was keeping you from it.
