Optimism is not dead. In this week's episode I will be discussing the difference between passive/blind optimism and active optimism. I believe that active optimism is a powerful idea in living an depressant resilient life because it does not ignore pain and the reality of life, but it can be a force in creating the future when paired with community and action.
This week's episode is inspired by the idea of "Optimism as Cultural Rebellion," coined by artist Matthew Stone.
