Fortitude

The powerful perspective that allows us to create something positive out of something negative.

Fortitude is commonly referred to as courage, endurance or bravery. It's the emotional strength and mental capability to cope with difficult times and move past them.

The way a superhero might go head to head with a villain regardless of the dangers involved. In our case it’s facing the increased amount of global challenges that requires us to keep going without being overwhelmed with hopelessness or despair.
