Ep #10 Lessons from Pollyanna

Show Notes

Today’s episode is special because it’s my tenth episode—woo hoo! cue the confetti!—and because I am talking about a book that is near and dear to my heart. You know how sometimes the right book comes along at the right time and it’s, well, . . . transformational. That’s what Pollyanna was for me, and I think after you listen to this episode, you will be rushing to the library or bookstore to snag your own copy. You can also read it for free online here https://www.gutenberg.org/files/1450/1450-h/1450-h.htm

Although this episode is a departure from the way I usually teach, I hope you will be inspired by this honest discussion of hardship and of faith and of how one book can change your perspective on everything.
In it, I discuss

· How our culture completely misses the mark about what it means to be a “Pollyanna”
· How playing one particular game can completely change your life

· What it means to “Pollyanna” a situation and how having that perspective can help you find joy in adversity

· How having a “Pollyanna attitude” has helped me in my personal struggles with recent sickness and surgery

Intrigued? I hope so. You won’t want to miss this episode.
