This conversation will help you to cultivate and foster this hope and reframe your relationship with anxiety, allowing you to connect with the meaning and purpose of your life. We are more anxious now than ever before. In the past, our in-built mechanism of fight or flight was how we survived as a species, but now it has turned into an overwhelming anxiety that we soothe, avoid or numb. We seek a hopeful world, but like faith, it needs to be enriched and shared to fully develop. Hope has countless shapes — an innocent child, an open door, a new book on the bedside, a wallet returned to its owner, a new beginning or a fresh spring day.
