In this episode, we discuss the chapter titled There Is Always Hope.
This is part of a study inspired by Seen – Healing Despair and Anxiety in Kids and Teens Through the Power of Connection by Will Hutcherson & Chinwé Williams, P.H.D. We take concepts from the book each week and apply them to brain health.
Will opens with a story about Hannah.
Will had just finished speaking to 900 students at a middle school assembly. A boy named John approached Will, asking him if he would speak with his friend Hannah. Hannah was feeling down dealing with insecurities. In his conversation with Hannah, Will assured her that she would not always feel this way. He allowed Hannah to emotionally exhale by sharing the hurt feelings she was experiencing. Will encouraged Hannah by telling her that she has a purpose.
Using a few connection tools, Will spoke life into Hannah.
Will acknowledged that his interaction with Hannah didn’t solve all of her problems, but it did give her the encouragement she needed that day. Each of us can play a small part in helping others along their journey.
Each of us can help.
Every caring adult, coach, parent, mentor, pastor, teacher, or counselor can offer hope to others in need.
Please understand that you matter.
We must fight to help kids, teens, and adults. Because we each matter!
The need for kids and adults to show up for one another has never been greater. Kids, teens, and adults are struggling with despair like never before.
Hope is our greatest weapon in the battle against despair.
The important thing to remember is that we don’t need to be perfect.
We need to show up, see them, just listen, speak life, and help them develop grit.
It is important that we have the right tools, but we also need to know that there is grace. When we mess up or say the wrong thing, the good news is there is grace.
Reading or listening to this may have you feeling a bit overwhelmed or unsure where to start.
Will encourages readers to start with one.
Start with one kid, one tool, or one moment. Just start with one.
