Today is our final episode of this season! 🎉

Thank you so much for staying with us, listening to us, sharing your words of encouragement with me, and spreading the word about our show.

For two years now, I have been asking every guest who comes on the podcast two questions: What gives you hope? And which place are you going to next?

I started asking the hope question because I needed to find that hope myself. And boy did our guests deliver!

So I thought it would be a beautiful way to close out this season with a collective, crowdsourced answer to that question.

What gives you hope?

"We all have that fire in our belly, and we are capable of great things. You have the power to make the person sitting next to you's day right now by just a small act of kindness or compassion, by seeing them, hearing them, making room for them." – Muna Haddad

Our Community Voices

What gives you hope?

We also asked our community members to send in their answers to these two questions. Thank you to everyone who participated: Carrie, Siham, Alice, Maxim, and Ami!

18 guests. 5 community members. The answer is in this episode.

I feel like it turned out to be a meditation not only on hope, but also on what it means to be human.

This – our shared humanity – and meeting so many kind, caring, passionate, and thoughtful people gives ME hope.

I hope you enjoy this crowdsourced, community-driven deliberation on hope!

"When I see women taking up the space and telling themselves, I'm going to use my voice now, that's more than hope. That's like me seeing the future of the industry." – Marinel de Jesus
