48: Hopecore with @YourHopefulRomantic: Why We Look For Hope In The Books We Read

In this episode, I’m joined by Ceilidh @YourHopefulRomantic for a conversation about what it really means to let hope guide us in life and love, and how the books we read can offer us an entirely new perspective on what it means to cultivate hope in our lives. We’re also going to explore why cynicism is so tempting, how negativity bias keeps us small, and why hoping out loud can feel like a radical, vulnerable act. We’ll share the impact that She’s Come Undone by Wally Lamb and Savor It by Tarah Dewitt have had on each of us.
