Option B by Sheryl Sandberg and Adam Grant is a book that combines personal stories and scientific research to help readers build resilience and overcome adversity. It uses the metaphor of “Option A” (the original plan) and “Option B” (the backup plan) to show how to navigate life’s inevitable challenges, offering practical advice for finding strength, helping others in crisis, and creating resilient families and communities. The book provides tools to avoid the “3 P’s” of personalization, pervasiveness, and permanence when dealing with setbacks, and focuses on “bouncing forward” rather than just bouncing back after tragedy.
