Huma’s career thrived since starting as an intern at the White House in 1996.  Yet, Huma’s marriage to former congressman Anthony Weiner led her personal life to not only come under public scrutiny but to fall apart.  She discusses this and more in her book and it is “through the opportunities and obstacles, the trials and triumphs, ” that we learn from Huma about her courage and wisdom to stay true to her values and to herself.  In this episode, we talk about “THE HEALING POWER OF RESILIENCE: A SELFCARE TOOL FOR YOU!” as Huma shares  what inspired her to write her engaging book, and, in a moment of personal privilege, Huma reads a passage as relates to 9/11/01 that you won't want to miss as it is so moving and we discuss why she choose to share this particular moment in her book.  Moreover, Huma and I discuss resilience.  In fact, she not only shares her definition of resilience, but we also discuss her daily Wellness routine and the Selfcare tools that she uses on a daily basis.  And, what a delight it is to listen to Huma as she tells us who and what inspires her and she shares her favorite books- the ones that have inspired her and/or have impacted her most in her life, and more.    For more information, please go to www.wellnessworldusa.com, https://titatalks.com and https://www.huma-abedin.com.  Follow us on Instagram @wellnessworldusa, @titatalksofficial, @welovetitatalks, @soniatitapuopolo and follow Huma @humaabedin.
