“He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how” ~ Friedrich Nietzsche
After my book, Rewriting My Happily Ever After - a memoir of divorce and discovery was published, people asked me a lot of "why" questions.
In this first episode of Rewriting YOUR Happily Ever after podcast, I describe my 3 WHYs for writing the book and for starting this podcast.
By answering the fundamental "Why" questions, we can clarify our reasons for doing something. It helps us do the hard work of applying ourselves to the task, of persevering, and powering through the tough times to reach our goal.
Now that I am embarking on these conversations about divorce, it seemed like the right way to begin was by sharing my reasons as well as my hopes for this podcast.
I often turn to books for guidance and advice. In this episode I mention one of the most inspirational memoirs I have read - Man's Search for Meaning" by Viktor Frankl. If you're interested in this book and it's impact on me, check out this blogpost on my website.
You can count on hearing more about books that have informed, guided and shaped.
You can also find a small "starting over suggestion" at the end of every episode - something to think about or act upon as you embark on a journey of self-discovery and craft a path to rewriting your happily ever after.
