AN EPISODE ON HOPE at the end of 2020

My Beautiful Stories

24-12-2020 • 12 mins

Today's episode, and the last one of 2020, is a little different. It is the result of a month-long collaboration with writer and philosopher Nanhe.

Throughout December, Nanhe  and I run a Hope project on Instagram. It was extremely heartening to read everyone’s contributions throughout the month. In preparation for it, Nanhe and I wrote letters to each other, thus creating an exchange of feelings and intentions, focusing on hope. Fate had it that while we were writing the letters, I fell ill. And all at once, the letters took a different turn and helped with my recovery.

We each read each other's letters on Instagram and planned to have a long lasting memory of these letters by publishing them in digital form (here and here) and also by recording them for the podcast.

In this episode of the podcast you will hear me narrating the letters, in order.

I hope you enjoy this different approach to hope and wish you warmest seasonal greetings.
