Jim Kelly, a former British Army career Soldier recently contributed this incredible article to WYWM's Industry Magazine: Solve. Jim, a lifelong student of both Boxing and the Martial Arts - first as a fighter, but now as a coach, is passionate about resilience and sharing the tools necessary for people to improve their resilience skills in order to have a better personal and professional life.

“In both the boxing ring and on the battlefield, I’ve learned that when you’re under great stress, you don’t have time or capacity to critically think; you just have time to react. Only the quality and consistency of the training you’ve invested in will influence how you react.

Learn more about the significance of resilience skills in challenging times. Jim's article is on page 32 of Solve #3.

Scarlett McDermott, Chief Technology Officer at WYWM, recently penned an article for the Industry Magazine Solve where she explained how the National Resilience Project will increase the number of opportunities accessible to people who are interested in volunteering for paid short-term work assignments. We believe that Government Agencies will be better positioned to respond to emergencies if there are more trained volunteers available to undertake temporary work assignments enabling data-driven decision-making in scenarios where time is critical.

“We can all make a difference by assisting our country. A volunteer base that is digitally skilled and committed to improving preparedness, planning, absorption, recovery, and adaptability skills are critical to our ability to better respond to and recover from various crisis situations.”

📸 Beagle Bay Church Western Australia:
In North Western Australia, nestled in the stunning Dampier Peninsula, lies the quaint petite ‘Sacred Heart’ church – also known as the Mother of Pearl Church – tucked away at Beagle Bay. But don’t let the simple outward appearance of this German-inspired church fool you – as it hides the awe-inspiring Mother of Pearl altar, hand-crafted by local Aboriginal women in 1917.
The altar incorporates hundreds of pieces of mother of pearl, cowrie, volute and olive snail shells, creating a unique mosaic that features the tribal symbols of the Nyul Nyul, the Nimanborr and the Bardi peoples, along with symbols with the Christian faith.
