In this episode, I’m walking through the songs from The Optimist’s Way — not as background music, but as part of the bigger conversation about staying hopeful, staying human, and finding connection through small acts of courage.
Each track carries something different. Let the Light In is about learning to open up again. The Quiet Kind of Bravehonors the everyday strength no one sees. What You Water Will Grow reminds us where we place our attention shapes what grows in our lives. These songs sit alongside the reflections in the book because they come from the same place — a desire to help people feel less alone on the days when trying feels like the hardest thing.
This episode isn’t just about music. It’s about how creativity can remind us to keep showing up, how small efforts add up, and how sharing our stories matters.
