Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own.

On this episode of Resilience, Entrepreneur Network partner Jason Saltzman sits down with Michael Nova, founder of Rise Up Eight, a website that features inspirational stories on people who have overcome great adversity. Nova speaks about how he can relate with this adversity through his own (financial and personal) struggles, and how he's gone on to find himself and success.

"When you're in the midst of a crisis," Nova says, "you don't see why you're in it. It isn't until afterwards that you're able to look back on it and see how you got to where you are today."
