The Art Of Codestiny Sheryl Sandberg CEO

By Ann Allen


In life, there are times when most people go through a hardship of one kind or another. For many, this can be in relation to the loss of a loved one. In the case of Facebook CEO and Lean In Founder and expert in codestiny Sheryl Sandberg, it was in relation to the loss of a husband and father of the Sandberg children.

In the days following the loss, devastation and destruction were the only emotions which Ms. Sandberg felt at the time. As such, the Facebook CEO and founder of Lean In decided to document those feelings. Now, the businesswoman and widow shares the story of loss, grief and the ability to rebuild in a new book called Option B: Facing Adversity, Building Resilience and Finding Joy.

One main point the author makes is that why people can eventually move forward in life, grief never goes away completely. Although, while sadness remains, it can and will get better with time. According to Sheryl, the title of the book is based on a Facebook post written shortly after the loss during the first 30 days of grief.

The book based on the belief that there is no Option A, in which the individual is still present, Option B is the only answer. It was possible for Sheryl to move on and begin to work through the adversity and grief brought on by the loss by documenting the emotional journey. By focusing attention on the memories the couple shared before the loss and working on this book and other projects, the businesswoman has been able to rebuild and find joy in new areas.

In an earlier book, the businesswoman wrote about working women and the will to lead to others while overcoming male dominance in the workplace. The first book made the best seller list in 2013. As such, it is expected this new book will follow suit while also helping millions come to understand and process grief with regard to a wide variety of losses which can occur in life.

Individuals facing adversity through hardship, loss or other factors share stories with others going through similar experiences on the forum. In doing so, many find solace, solidarity and support. In addition, the organization also provides resources which can assist in building resilience.

As anyone who has lost a loved one knows, one often feels isolated, alone and like nothing can make things better at the initial time of loss. In fact, even when others whom have experienced such loss suggest that life will get better in time, individuals have a hard time believing this to be the case. Whereas, with the right amount love and support, most people can and do move forward, once again finding joy and happiness in life.

Eventually, most people realize that moving on and moving forward in life is okay. In many cases, memories of those lost becomes a mainstay for overcoming grief while processing the loss. In doing so, many have reported having the ability to build a strong resilience to grief during the process.
