Faye Lawand
The Global Resilience Project
What I learned healed me and made me determined to help others suffering from poor mental health, exhaustion and pain.
Burnout can strike anyone, anytime, anywhere.
My first burnout happened in Curaçao, a slice of heaven in the Caribbean.
I was living in paradise, hanging out by the pool all day and partying all night.
On the surface, life was incredible but inside I was a mess.
I was a pro at pretending everything was fine.
I put on a mask because I didn't know it was okay not to be okay.
I spent so much time in front of the mirror trying to look my best and put a brave face on things.
I wore fancy clothes and relied on retail therapy to take my mind off things I couldn't explain.
I couldn't understand why I felt so bad when my life was so good.
I was tired all the time. I could sleep for 10 hours and still wake up feeling absolutely drained.
I needed caffeine to get going in the morning, sugar to get me through the day and alcohol to unwind at night.
I had chronic pain and I was constantly nauseous and dizzy.
My world was spinning while my life was spinning out of control.
One morning, I was driving my car to school where I worked as a teacher. I blacked out and lost control of the car which ended up on the other side of the road.
When I came to it seemed like an eternity had passed.
I had no explanation for what had happened. I was petrified. And so I hid it.
I never spoke about it to anyone.
But the symptoms didn’t go away.
They never do.
I'd be at my desk or in the gym when I would pass out. Finally I want to see a doctor, the first of many.
I was convinced there was something neurological wrong with me. I was hoping for a diagnosis, a label to explain why I was feeling so bad. I remember sitting in a doctor's office, my fourth or fifth doctor, desperately hoping for an answer that made sense to me. “I've really good news for you,” the doctor said. “All your tests are negative. There’s nothing wrong with you.”
And I started sobbing. “But that's not possible, doctor. If nothing is wrong with me, why do I feel so bad?”
That was the question that started the deep enquiry that led to what I do now.
It's taken me 16 years to find an answer.
The doctor suggested my symptoms were psycho emotional, that I was suffering from depression and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The depression diagnosis I could accept but PTSD? “No chance,” I said. “I've experienced nothing traumatic in my life.”
I completely ignored the fact that a couple of months earlier my heart was broken when the Israeli invasion of 2006 saw me locked out of my own country.
I had returned to my homeland of Lebanon to see my family and my new nephew.
It was a beautiful family reunion and I felt at peace with the world and myself for the first time in a long time.
While I was home I planned a 4-day trip to Istanbul in Turkey, a city I’d always wanted to visit.
I had an early morning flight and didn’t want to wake up my family.
So I didn’t kiss any of them goodbye because I would see them again in a few days' time.
Or so I thought. I still had four glorious weeks at home to look forward to.
But I never made it back to Lebanon that summer.
Israel invaded while I was in Istanbul.
Air strikes targeted civilian infrastructure and the airport was shut down.
I was stuck in Istanbul and couldn't get home.
I couldn’t say goodbye to my family.
I bought a one-way ticket from Istanbul back to Curaçao and I landed at the airport with no luggage, no house key and no car key.
I left everything behind in Lebanon.
I felt drained, confused, disoriented and overwhelmed.
I’d been forced out of my country by conflict and chaos, not for the first time in my life.
When I got back to Curaçao I was anxious and sick with worry all the time about what was happening to my family in Lebanon.
It was hard to sleep and every morning, I’d wake up with a sense of dread.
The war lasted 34 days but it felt like a lifetime.
Thankfully, none of my family were injured but hundreds of thousands were displaced from their homes. I was displaced from my sense of self, my sense of belonging.
That was the start of my journey* to find myself again, to find my way home.
When I talk about my journey, people either relate to it right away, or they don't.
Some people say, “I've never lived in a war zone so what you do is not applicable to me.”
My story is not about the war.
My story is about not dealing with the internal conflict caused by the war.
We’re all fighting an internal battle.
We all have internal chaos to some degree or another.
You don't have to be born in a warzone to suffer from internal conflicts that limit you and cause poor mental health, exhaustion and pain.

RESLIENT A.F.: Stories of Resilience - Vol.1
I am a Youth Development Specialist. I started my career as a teacher for the Happy Kids School in my hometown in the Volta Region of Ghana. My job as a teacher led me to mentor my students to keep them engaged in school. From there, I worked as a Childcare Development Director running children's homes for vulnerable children in need of care.
In 2014, I co-founded the Volta Charity Football League with a Moroccan friend for the community boys. I coached football league teams to encourage sportsmanship, leadership, and confidence. This league birthed the first female football league in our region for non-governmental schools and organizations, which taught our girls that they are as talented and valued as their male counterparts.
After High School, I was unable to afford college until after 6 years when I got a sponsorship to pursue a course in Graphic Design & Marketing from a good friend who was also my boss at the time. I also went on to take short courses in Non-Profit Governance and Operations. I continued my professional development with courses like Global Social Entrepreneurship, Advocacy, and other available courses online at Philanthropy University. I have also taken a few intensive workshops in School Leadership. Over the last 11 years, I have been gathering and analyzing cultural, educational, social, and entrepreneurial data to develop effective programs with schools and communities with the youth in focus.
Last year I developed my volunteer tourism program to bring visitors with skills to support programs with needs through which I launched my after-school program with the generous donation from The Global Resilience Project. I have collaborated with local schools and communities to organize youth training sessions; career and education mentorship workshops; monitor students at risk and implement youth development programs.
I am passionate about livestock farming, afro contemporary and cultural dance. I love drumming, camping and kayaking.

RESLIENT A.F.: Stories of Resilience - Vol.1
By the time I was 32, I had a stark realization: my life's decisions were all built upon a severe dependency on alcohol. Every week was a battle against the same cycle - waking up hungover on Monday, swearing it would be my last time, only to succumb to the lure of alcohol by Thursday.
I tried to quit multiple times, using various methods - AA, therapy, counseling, and coaching. Each unsuccessful attempt left me feeling like a failure. But then, I had an epiphany: true change can only come from within. It was time for a shift. It was time to focus inward and embark on a journey of healing.
This journey led me to discover the transformative power of meditation and breathwork. I became fascinated by these practices and their potential to heal and restore. I decided to reinvent myself, diving deep into the study of Neuroscience, and becoming a Certified Breathwork Teacher, NLP Practitioner, Meditation Leader, and Nationally Certified Sobriety Coach.
Since then, I've dedicated my life to helping others navigate their journeys to recovery. I've had the privilege of witnessing incredible transformations over the past three years, as individuals reclaimed their lives from the clutches of alcohol.
To further this mission, I've developed a one-of-a-kind method called Breathesober Reset. This is broken down over 6 months.
This program is designed to provide the tools, guidance, and support you need to reset your life and build a healthier relationship with alcohol.
It's not just about quitting drinking, it's the first step, it's about uncovering and addressing root causes and retraining the brain to think and live happily as an Alcohol-Free person.

Jan Janzen
The Global Resilience Project
She left the Jehovah’s Witness organization in 1999 after spending her entire life devoted to her faith. Transitioning to life outside the cult was challenging and life shattering. Her husband of 18 years left her for another woman, she ended up homeless twice and almost bankrupt.
It was during this time that Jan’s money programming became very evident. Trained from infancy that Armageddon was always “just around the corner”, she had no concept of growing old, financial security or amassing wealth.
It was through a two decade journey of money self-discovery that Jan not only learned about Sacred Money Archetypes but did a 180 degree turn-around in her perception of money, having a positive effect on her financial status.
A non-denominational minister and author of 3 books, Jan traveled the world for 9 years, spent 4 years as a missionary in Ecuador and now resides on 20 acres in the woods in BC, Canada with her two rescue cats.
