Learn how to come back stronger and keep going when you experience setbacks and disappointment.

Why do some people bounce back from adversity while others stay stuck? We all face stress and setbacks, but not everyone recovers the same way. What makes the difference? Executive leadership coach, educator, and TEDx speaker Leslie M. Bosserman has spent decades helping people answer that question. Through research, experience, and her own personal journey, she’s identified the key: emotional endurance.

In Emotional Endurance, you’ll develop the mindset and skills to face life’s hardest moments and come out stronger, wiser, and more grounded. Based in psychological research and biblical truth, this practical and hope-filled guide offers a framework for building resilience that lasts. Soon you won’t just survive adversity; you’ll bounce back stronger with the skills to keep going.

Emotional Endurance offers practical tools and transformational results, including how to

• develop inner strength and grit through six core principles and eighteen actionable skills;
• recover from failure, turn it into a source of strength, and use it to fuel your growth;
• build resilience that lasts beyond a single crisis;
• access hope to heal from emotional wounds;
• replace fear and paralysis with courage and clarity;
• learn to manage your energy by anticipating what drains you and making space for what restores you; and
• find strength to endure challenges by standing firm in your clearly defined purpose.

This book is a perfect gift for anyone going through a difficult season, friends facing burnout or transition, graduates stepping into uncertain futures, small groups or book clubs focused on personal growth, or leadership retreats and team-building sessions.

Real strength isn’t about avoiding hard things. It’s about moving forward with emotional steadiness when life gets tough. Emotional Endurance equips you with the mindset and resilience to keep going, keep growing, and come out stronger on the other side. Your bounce-back starts here.
