This is a conversation with my baby cousin, Brieanna. She is the most optimistic human I know and her positive outlook on life is so contagious. Brieanna shares where her optimism developed and how it's impacted the forward movement in her life. As someone who values family and community, she provides tangible advice for cultivating relationships. We chat about the supporting and main character roles each of us play in life and why it's so important for our mental health to acknowledge this fact. You'll hear us discuss how we've gone from cousins to friends over time and the effort it takes to nurture platonic love. If you're feeling lonely, pessimistic, stuck or desire to release judgmental thinking - this is the one for you!
