Rewrite Your Stories

  • Curiosity – the recognition, pursuit, and intense desire to explore novel, challenging, and uncertain events (Snyder, C. R., & Lopez, S. J. (2009). Oxford Handbook of Positive Psychology. Oxford: Oxford University Press)
  • Connection – the energy that exists between people when they feel seen, heard, and valued; when hey can give and receive without judgement; and when they derive sustenance and strength from the relationship (Dr. Brené Brown)
  • Community – (as defined by M. Scott Peck and brought to my consciousness by bell hooks): “the coming together of a group of individuals who have learned to communicate honestly with each other, whose relationships go deeper than their masks of composure, and who have developed some significant commitment to rejoice together, mourn together, and to delight in each other, and make others’ conditions our own.”
