We Can Do Hard Things – Doyle Glennon (2025)

Glennon Doyle, Abby Wambach and Amanda Doyle created this guidebook for being alive to help fellow travelers find their way through life. Just as a guidebook helps when you travel through a new country, this book offers guidance through love, heartbreak, joy, parenting, friendship, uncertainty, aging, grief and new beginnings. Glennon Doyle returns to questions such as why she is the way she is, how to know what she wants and what to do, and why happiness can seem so difficult. Her sister Amanda and her wife Abby are her compasses. After Glennon was diagnosed with anorexia, Amanda with breast cancer, and Abby’s beloved brother died, all three found themselves lost at the same time. They turned to deep, honest conversations with brave, kind and wise people, asking each other, their closest friends and 118 brilliant wayfinders what wisdom might help them navigate marriage, parenting, work, recovery, heartbreak, aging and new beginnings. Their collected answers offer clarity in chaos and wise company on life’s path, reminding readers that someone else has travelled every terrain and that we do not have to travel alone.
