“I just finished Option B: Facing Adversity, Building Resilience, and Finding Joy by Sheryl Sandberg. It’s about how her husband’s death from a heart attack affected her work and personal life, and how she got through that.

“It had personal meaning for me. My son is very ill, and it has helped me in how I’m dealing with balancing work with my personal life.

“It gives the lesson that you don’t always know what others are going through. And everyone deals with hardships differently.

“Another lesson: It’s OK to share what you’re going through, even if it’s at work.”
