She describes her early struggles with hope and how she started thinking differently about it. She outlines the learned lies and uncultivated truths surrounding hope. Catherine also reveals how hope can create a world of deeper connection and love and underscores how we all have an internal wellspring of hope that never runs out.“Hopelessness is a mind trick—there is no tube of hope that we squeeze and run out of. It is an ever-present, ever-flowing wellspring that you just tap in, and there’s always more.” - Catherine HammondThis week on the Trauma Hiders Club Podcast:What Catherine learned about hope from Viktor Frankl’s Man’s Search for MeaningThe prevailing narrative of hopelessness in societyThe infinite, internal nature of hopeHow unresolved trauma can block our access to truth, sense of self, and hopeHopefulness versus being disassociated and compartmentalized by traumaThe “Make it Happen” girl and my prior relationship with hopeWhy hopelessness is made-up and connecting with hope while in great painThe seven lies we believe about hope and the uncultivated truths about hopeMortality and hopeWhat we miss out on in a world built upon hopelessnessHow can hope allow us to see beauty in all parts of lifeDeeper connection and deeper loveCreating your personal hope toolkitResources Mentioned:Book: Man’s Search for Meaning by Viktor FranklConnect with Catherine Hammond:Catherine Hammond WebsiteHammond Law GroupBook: hope(less): The Truth about Hope and Where to Find ItHammond Law Group on LinkedInHammond Law Group on FacebookHammond Law Group on TwitterCatherine Hammond on LinkedInCatherine Hammond on InstagramCatherine Hammond on FacebookCatherine Hammond on TwitterWhere High Achievers Get Through Shit - TOGETHERThanks for tuning into this week’s Trauma Hiders Club ‘The Podcast’ episode with Karen Goldfinger Baker.
