The Motherkind Podcast

How to be hopeful with Bernadette Russell

This week, I’m speaking with Bernadette Russell, who is an author and expert on hope and kindness. Bernadette has written a number of books on kindness, hope and wonder. Her newest book is called ‘How to Be Hopeful: Your Toolkit to Rediscover Hope and Help Create a Kinder World’, which I think is such a beautiful message for these times.

In the episode, we talk about kindness, compassion and the power of hope. Bernadette shares how one incident totally changed her outlook and the trajectory of her life. We also explore why being hopeful is so important to connect us to feelings of joy and positivity. 

We have a really interesting discussion around the news - and how to walk the fine line between staying informed and not feeling all consumed by what is going on in the world around us. the news around us. 

I loved our conversation and hope you enjoy it, too. For the full show notes, please head over to motherkind.co.
