Resilient By Necessity: A Memoir Of A Journey from Lost Child to Finding Strength, Identity and Purpose


Overview

What does it take to build an unwavering resilience that can meet any of life's challenge head on? Alan Fraser knows. At five, Alan walked seven kilometers every day to attend school-snow, rain, or shine. At thirteen, he got his first job-working the night shift at a local motel while continuing with school. At eighteen, he moved away from his hometown to pursue his dreams of a career in hospitality. Born the youngest of seven children into acute poverty and a home with an abusive, alcoholic parent, Alan's life had a more than challenging start. Follow along with his journey as he details the survival of his childhood, growth into adulthood, and his search for identity and stability. From cultivating a career to finding love and friendship to home ownership to retirement, and beyond, Alan charts the inspirational story of his life, showing how, through his lived experiences, determination and gratitude are the bedrock of a life well lived.
