Allison Carmen: Embracing MAYBE
from The Frontier Beyond Fear · host Susan Larison Danz
How do we approach our own uncertainty after the election? The author of The Gift of Maybe: Finding Hope and Possibility in Uncertain Times, Psychology Today and Huffington Post writer, life coach, business consultant and former attorney Allison Carmen spontaneously returns to the show. From Allison: "I know many of my Facebook friends are beyond upset, afraid and disappointed today. However, these are the moments when uncertainty can become our best friend. We don't know what will happen next. And within not knowing there are bad possibilities but good possibilities too. Remember the MAYBE. Maybe things will get better. Maybe we can still find a way to create a world of peace and equality. Most of all MAYBE everything will still be okay. There are thousands of MAYBE statements that lead to a better world. Let's feel what we have to feel and when we are ready let's embrace MAYBE - the gateway to hope, change and the kind of world we want to live in."
