Building The “Hope” Muscle In The Face Of Disappointment

from Athletic But Definitely A Party Girl · host Tim Landicho

I get it. It can be scary to approach the new year with hope — whether you have concrete goals or not — when you've been burned by disappointment in the past.In this episode, I answer a listener's question and riff on my belief that hope isn't something you either have or don't (that's a fixed mindset, babe). It's a muscle we actively strengthen through reps, even when things look bleak. I share how I've approached this as a coach over the past decade, plus three practical tools you can start using immediately to build your "hope" muscle and maintain forward momentum.Remember: hope isn't about bypassing your anger, sadness, or frustration. It's choosing to cultivate agency alongside those feelings.And as it turns out, consciously choosing to build that muscle might be more important than ever.Be #AthleticButDefinitelyAPartyGirlGot a question or topic suggestion?
