We Can Do Hard Things

Answers to Life's 20 Questions

Summary

Life gets easier when we ask the hard questions.

We walk through life on a spiral staircase, circling the same 20 Questions again and again. Among them:

Why am I like this? How do I know what to do? Why can’t I be happy? Why am I so angry? How do I let go?

Facing these questions is uncomfortable. The answers are complicated. But Glennon Doyle, Abby Wambach and Amanda Doyle have learned that life gets easier when we are brave enough to name the hard questions and discover our answers. They created this book to make that healing a joyful, shared process.

With its immersive, bold design, We Can Do Hard Things overflows with wisdom, comfort and inspiration. Glennon, Abby and Amanda describe their own soul-shifting realisations and share the most transformative lessons they have learned over years of conversations with world-renowned teachers and everyday visionaries. We Can Do Hard Things is a gift to be given to friends when you can’t find the right words; it is a guide to be passed to the next generation.

As Glennon says, 'This book is like your most trusted friend who wraps her arms around you and comforts you as she clears your head, calms your heart and untangles your pain. It is full of the courage, wisdom and solidarity that healed me, and we created it to be that for you, too.'
