What Resilience Looks Like Zine

We’re often told that resilience means bouncing back quickly—picking ourselves up and carrying on as if nothing happened. But real resilience is quieter, messier, and much more human.

This mini zine reframes resilience as the everyday acts that help us get through hard moments: asking for help, letting ourselves feel things deeply, crying, and resting. Through gentle illustrations and thoughtful reflections, it’s a reminder that resilience isn’t about being unbreakable—it’s about being open and kind to yourself as you change.

Measuring 4.25" x 2.75", this zine is easy to tuck into a bag, keep by your bedside, or gift to someone who could use reassurance that they’re doing better than they think.
