About
Searching for the Good is a podcast born of my personal struggles with my health. As I’ve faced disability and learned to live with it I’ve also learned that life is so remarkably good. We are so blessed and while we don’t always feel or see it, we always have a reason to celebrate and be thankful. In this podcast we will explore the things that could destroy us if we let them, but if we commit to searching for, and finding the good, we will be stronger, braver, and more grateful than ever before. Let’s take a look at the things that could make us bitter and angry and see how they really make us more genuine, bold and aware of how our lives impact those around us. I want us to be able to reflect on our experiences and let them inspire us. I want us to be able to empower each other to shine light and hope into the world around us by constantly searching for the good.
