“Unraveling Resilience: 10 Surprising Traits You Never Knew Were Shaped by a Chaotic Childhood”
When I was a kid, my family moved around a lot. My parents’ jobs weren’t stable, and we had to make do with whatever we had. From an early age, I learned how to solve problems on my own. Instead of asking for new toys, I’d invent my own games with whatever I could find.

Growing up with instability can be tough, but it can also foster a strong sense of self-efficacy, equipping us with the resilience and resourcefulness to overcome life’s obstacles.
