Life is full of adversity and change. What enables us to endure events like 9/11 or record-breaking natural disasters? Overcome discrimination and loss? Or even simply recover from common daily inconveniences?

Nathan Andres has ridden life’s roller-coaster and is often asked the secret to his resiliency. After years of research, education, practice, and reflection, he’s not only found the answer, but turned it into a formula anyone can use.

Your REAL Life introduces the REAL model, a practical framework for coaching yourself through adversity of any scale. Using the anchors of Reality, Energy, Authenticity, and Love, Nathan breaks down the key ingredient to beating anything life throws at you: authentic resilience.

Grounded with psychology and basic neuroscience as well as best practices in the coaching field, Your Real Life teaches you everything you need to know to build authentic resilience. When you get REAL, you don’t just bounce back from hardship—you bounce beyond it.
