NEW YORK TIMES AND #1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER ⢠The award-winning authors and podcasters Glennon Doyle, Abby Wambach, and Amanda Doyle created We Can Do Hard Thingsâthe guidebook for being aliveâto help fellow travelers find their way through life.
When you travel through a new country, you need a guidebook.
When you travel through love, heartbreak, joy, parenting, friendship, uncertainty, aging, grief, new beginningsâlifeâyou need a guidebook, too.
We Can Do Hard Things is the guidebook for being alive.
Every day, Glennon Doyle spirals around the same questions: Why am I like this? How do I figure out what I want? How do I know what to do? Why canât I be happy? Am I doing this right?
The harder life gets, the less likely she is to remember the answers sheâs spent her life learning. She wonders: Iâm almost fifty years old. Iâve overcome a hell of a lot. Why do I wake up every day having forgotten everything I know?
Glennonâs compasses are her sister, Amanda, and her wife, Abby. Recently, in the span of a single year, Glennon was diagnosed with anorexia, Amanda was diagnosed with breast cancer, and Abbyâs beloved brother died. For the first time, they were all lost at the same time. So they turned toward the only thing thatâs ever helped them find their way: deep, honest conversations with other brave, kind, wise people.
They asked each other, their dearest friends, and 118 of the worldâs most brilliant wayfinders: As youâve traveled these roadsâmarriage, parenting, work, recovery, heartbreak, aging, new beginningsâhave you collected any wisdom that might help us find our way?
As Glennon, Abby, and Amanda wrote down every life-saving answer, they discovered two things:
1. No matter what road we are walking down, someone else has traveled the same terrain.
2. The wisdom of our fellow travelers will light our way.
They put all of that wisdom in one place: We Can Do Hard Thingsâa place to turn when you feel clueless and alone, when you need clarity in the chaos, or when you want wise company on the path of life.
We are all life travelers. We donât have to travel alone. We Can Do Hard Things is our guidebook.
