Kindness Is a Decision EP 391

Your Daily Dose of Hope ·

2026/08/10

Recently, I saw Shola Richards wearing a shirt that said, “Kindness is a decision.” Shola writes a Substack called Strong Enough to Be Kind, which I’ll link to in the episode notes. That phrase, kindness is a decision, stayed with me. We sometimes treat kindness like a personality trait. Some people are naturally kind, and others aren’t. Or we think kindness depends on our mood, our circumstances, or how someone else treats us first. But kindness is a decision, a choice we can make for

Leave Room for Wonder EP 384

Your Daily Dose of Hope ·

2026/07/30

We spend so much of our lives trying to optimize everything.We manage our calendars, track our habits, solve problems, answer emails, and plan what's next. There's nothing wrong with being productive. But if we're not careful, we can become so focused on managing life that we forget to experience it. Wonder doesn't usually show up on our to-do list. It appears in the unexpected conversation that makes your day. The sunrise you almost missed because you were looking at your phone. The

Stay Curious EP 383

Your Daily Dose of Hope ·

2026/07/29

As children, we're naturally curious.We ask questions about everything. Why is the sky blue? How does that work? What happens if I try this? Somewhere along the way, many of us trade curiosity for certainty. We start believing we should already know the answers. We worry about looking inexperienced or asking the "wrong" question. But curiosity is where learning begins. It's where creativity lives. It's where new opportunities often show up. When we stay curious, we become more open to

The People in Your Corner EP 382

Your Daily Dose of Hope ·

2026/07/28

One of the greatest gifts in life is having people who are genuinely happy when something good happens to you.Not because they gain anything from it. Not because they're being polite. But because your success brings them joy. I've been thinking about that lately. Every time I share something I'm excited about, there are people who immediately cheer me on. They celebrate the win, ask questions, and encourage me to keep going. Those people are priceless. They remind us that success isn't a

Progress Doesn't Always Feel Like Progress EP 381

Your Daily Dose of Hope ·

2026/07/27

One of the most frustrating things about personal growth is that it rarely announces itself. There's no flashing sign that says, "Congratulations! You're becoming more resilient." Most of the time, progress is quiet. It shows up in the way we are responding, differently than a year ago. It's recovering from a setback a little faster. It's noticing that something which used to consume your thoughts for days now only takes an hour. It’s realizing we’ve tried something new or left behind

You Get to Say No EP 380

Your Daily Dose of Hope ·

2026/07/24

I spend a lot of time encouraging you to say yes.Yes to hope. Yes to joy. Yes to opportunities. Yes to the things that help you become more of who you want to be. But today, I want to give you permission to say something else. No. No to the commitments that leave you exhausted. No to relationships that only take and never give. No to habits that no longer fit the person you're becoming. No to carrying responsibilities that were never yours to begin with. Saying no isn't selfish. It's

We Have More in Common Than We Think EP 379

Your Daily Dose of Hope ·

2026/07/23

Travel has a funny way of reminding us what's really important. My flight to Texas recently was supposed to take about two and a half hours. Instead, it took six. Weather forced us to divert to another airport for fuel. Then more storms kept us sitting on the tarmac for another hour and a half. None of it was anyone's fault. I kept waiting for people to get frustrated. But they didn't. People chatted with each other. Parents smiled as their kids wandered the aisle to burn off energy. Flight

A Change of Scenery EP 378

Your Daily Dose of Hope ·

2026/07/22

I recently spent a few days at a retreat that was centered around writing. Not writing a book. Just writing. The kind of writing that helps me think more clearly, connect ideas, and create things that might help someone else. Things like these Daily Dose of Hope episodes and content for my website. One of the biggest surprises wasn't what I wrote. It was what happened because I was in a different place. A new environment. A slower pace. A few familiar faces and several people I'd never met
