This week, on the Love Letters, Life, and Other Conversations podcast, Jane and Wendy talk about possibility and perspective. 

Inspired by Rosamund & Benjamin Zander’s book,“The Art of Possibility,” they discuss:

- How the stories we tell ourselves about what’s going on in our lives can affect our mindset and experiences. They explore the idea of changing the narrative and empowering a new story that infuses meaning and quality into your life.

- Turning challenges into opportunities by questioning our circumstances and viewing the situation through an alternative lens instead of simply following the status quo. 

- The freedom of seeing the world as a place full of possibility and abundance, instead of a place of scarcity.

Wendy’s Takeaways:

• Being able to articulate that although we haven't arrived at a place where everything is "perfect," we can still acknowledge the good that's a part of our day-to-day life.
  
  
• The joy of the idea that anything is possible while recognizing that possibility is an art, which means it requires practice.
  
  
• The little girl in the book’s default outlook was “perfect.” It is what you make it.

Jane’s Takeaways:

• The concept that whatever the problem, whatever the story, whatever the framework, it's all been invented already. And we as individuals have everything we need at our disposal to reinvent it.
  
  
• Taking an alternative approach to problem-solving and reframing with a picket fence rather than a circle.
  
  
• Conversation cements both new ideas and new habits.
