Last year I wrote a post about How to help someone in need (for ANY reason). I read the book “Love Does” by Bob Goff and it shifted my entire thinking about how I should be living. And how I should be loving. I knew I needed to quit thinking so much about doing things and just start DOing things. Things in my own life and things for other people.
The problem, for me, is it’s often hard to think of what to do. There are so many people around me who are hurting or in need for just about every reason I can think of. Divorce, infertility, death of a child, don’t feel seen or understood, lots of children to care for, cancer, chronic illness, a difficult child, loneliness, postpartum anxiety….. The list goes on and on and on. I want to help the people I love but often I couldn’t think of exactly what to do. So too often I did nothing.
After reading the book, I e-mailed a bunch of my friends. And they helped me compile a list of things to DO which resulted in this post/resource.
In the past few weeks I had the opportunity to talk more extensively about this specific post and how it has become a resource for thousands and thousands of people in their quest to DO things for others.
You can see the TV interview I did on Studio 5 here.
I also was excited to do a podcast (much more in depth with extra insight and ideas) with Dr. Christina Hibbert here.
Love DOES things.
