We Can Do Hard Things Answers to Life’s 20 Questions

Life has a way of asking the same questions over and over: Why am I like this? How do I know what to do? Am I doing this right? This New York Times #1 Bestseller from the beloved We Can Do Hard Things podcast trio—Glennon Doyle, Abby Wambach, and Amanda Doyle—offers something we all desperately need: a guidebook for being alive.

When the three of them found themselves lost at the same time—navigating anorexia, breast cancer, and profound grief—they turned to what’s always helped them find their way: deep, honest conversations with brave, wise people. They gathered wisdom from 118 of the world’s most brilliant thinkers, asking: What have you learned traveling these roads of marriage, parenting, heartbreak, aging, and new beginnings?

The result is this extraordinary collection—a place to turn when you feel clueless and alone, when you need clarity in the chaos, or when you simply want wise company on the path of life. Featuring insights from luminaries like Brandi Carlile, Jane Fonda, Roxane Gay, Elizabeth Gilbert, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, Esther Perel, Cheryl Strayed, and many others, this book reminds us that no matter what road we’re walking, someone else has traveled the same terrain.

Perfect for anyone navigating life’s inevitable hard things—which is to say, all of us. Keep it on your nightstand, gift it to a fellow traveler, or simply let it remind you: we don’t have to do this alone.
