We Can Do Hard Things

  • Summary

  • Life is freaking hard. We are all doing hard things every single day – things like loving and losing; caring for children and parents; forging and ending friendships; battling addiction, illness, and loneliness; struggling in our jobs, our marriages, and our divorces; setting boundaries; and fighting for equality, purpose, freedom, joy, and peace. On We Can Do Hard Things, Glennon Doyle, author of UNTAMED; her wife Abby Wambach; and her sister Amanda Doyle do the only thing they’ve found that has ever made life easier: Drop the fake and talk honestly about the hard things including sex, gender, parenting, blended families, bodies, anxiety, addiction, justice, boundaries, fun, quitting, overwhelm . . . all of it. We laugh and cry and help each other carry the hard so we can all live a little bit lighter and braver, free-er, less alone.

How to use what most frustrates you about your partner to bring you closer. 4. How to start thinking of our partnerships as our own mini political systems. 5. What to do if your partner won’t go to therapy, or if you’re feeling invisible in your relationship. About Dr. Guralnik: Dr. Orna Guralnik is a psychoanalyst and writer, who serves on the faculty of NYU PostDoc, National Institute for the Psychotherapies, the Stephen Mitchel Center, and the editorial boards of Psychoanalytic Dialogues and Studies in Gender & Sexuality.

A must listen for everyone no matter what your family looks like

My absolute favorite episode of wcdht. I love the honesty, tenderness and understanding Glennon and Craig share with us. It is so very beautiful to see that this is possible for those who are faced with divorce.

Well timed message

I will be re- listening to the boundaries session!! From understanding what it means to set boundaries to realizing what and who I am responsible for. These are all things I have struggled with as an empath/sensitive and it was a much needed eye opener. Thank you Glennon and your sister for opening up this dialogue and sharing I have a newfound and much needed appreciation for boundaries. Michele

Thank you

I was married to a man for 30 years. Pushed down feeling I didn’t know I had. Finally one night after a few glasses of wine I got the nerve to ask a woman out. Everyone in my life said they were not surprised. Ps. She is sleeping next to me as I write this. At 50 something I feel real. Everything about this podcast made me feel supported.
