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.

  • Dr. Christine Blasey Ford: 6 Years Since Her Kavanaugh Testimony

    Dr. Christine Blasey Ford: 6 Years Since Her Kavanaugh Testimony
    Sep 25 2024
    Do you remember where you were? On September 27, 2018, as Dr. Christine Blasey Ford raised her right hand and testified in the hearings of Brett Kavanaugh—who would go on to be confirmed to a lifetime appointment on the highest court in the nation. This week marks six years since we were eyewitnesses to her historic, courageous patriotism. In honor of her bravery and resolve, today we reshare our powerful conversation with Dr. Christine Blasey Ford—about the heartbreak, and hope, of being an American woman. About Dr. Ford: Dr. Christine Blasey Ford is a professor of psychology at Palo Alto University and a clinical professor and consulting biostatistician at the Stanford University School of Medicine. On September 27, 2018, Dr. Ford testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee regarding her sexual assault in connection with the Committee’s consideration of Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s lifetime confirmation to the United States Supreme Court. Following her testimony, Ford and her family endured constant intimidation, harassment, and death threats forcing them to move out of their home, living in various secure locales with guards. In 2019, she was named one of the 100 most influential people in Time 100. Dr. Ford’s memoir, ONE WAY BACK, is available now.

No words

I found this podcast by chance as I was looking for 'Untamed' (which I'm listening to at the moment and love just as much as the podcast). I usually binge listen to 4 to 6 episodes while at work, then take some time to recharge the batteries and process. I love the dynamic between Glennon, Amanda and Abby. They have become great companions while I weed away in the garden I tend to. The episodes make me sme, laugh, cry, feel empowered and so very heavy and helpless sometimes. Glennon's work is one of the important ones in this journey of finding myself that I'm currently on. I hope they will carry on for a while because I'm not yet ready for them to leave. I like it and I learn a lot from this and am grateful that it exists.

Honest, beautiful and hopeful.

So many of Glennon's podcast episodes have felt like a rescue light in a storm. If this one had been about when my children were little it would've been just that for me. I still got a lot from the episode having older children now. Lots of important reminders and reassuring advice. I'm so grateful for the things she shares. ♥️

Love, Love, Love This Podcast! ❤️

Glennon, Abby and Sister are 3 exceptional humans who have the ability to connect to their 'podsquaders' on such a deep level due to their openness, rawness and all the while with a light hearted humour. You guys are helping me in my healing journey as well as keeping me entertained regularly. I love you guys so much and only wish you were actually my friends,(which I feel like you are hahaha) Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Favourite podcast, hands down!

I regularly listen to this podcast and it always makes me feel like I'm listening to a deeply felt conversation with girlfriends. I learn so much while listening and also find myself laughing out loud. The combination of Sister's, Glennon's and Abby's profound knowledge, vulnerability, and light heartedness is a rare one indeed.

just taps in to your heart and soul

first read the book, fucking awesome, then felt desperate like I needed more and found the pod casts. thank the lord. to hear women speaking so openly and honestly about their experiences frankly, relaxes your mind to your own thoughts and feelings they touch on so many different subjects. it could apply to anybody from any walk of life. it might be just me and my personality type but I really tapped into this kind of conversation it's true. it's real. it's pure. it's messy, dirty and raw It's just life and so fucking relatable, I must just add it is also beautiful and fulfilling and enriching in every way.
