““I would happily burn most self help books. Lucy Hone is different. Her books are meaningful.”
— Steve Braunias, Reading Room

Resilience researcher. Real-life practitioner.

When Lucy’s daughter Abi died suddenly in a road accident in 2014, everything she knew about coping with unwanted change was tested in the most personal way imaginable.

She turned to the research she’d spent years studying, not to move on, but to survive. To keep her family together. To find a way forward.

That experience didn’t just reshape her life. It reshaped her work.

Today she speaks to boardrooms, sports teams, health centres and everything in between. Her books are pressed into people’s hands at the worst moments of their lives.

Real, not perfect. Raw and relatable. Knowledgable but practical. So you and your teams come away feeling empowered and equipped for what’s coming.
