Why am I like this? Who am I really? How do I know when I've lost myself? How do I return to myself? How do I figure out what I want? How do I know what to do? How do I do the hard thing? How do I let go? How do I go on? How do I make peace with my body? How do I make and keep friends? How do I love my person? Sex. Am I doing this right? Parenting. Why is it so hard? Why can't I be happy? Why am I so angry? How do I forgive? How do I get unstuck? How do I feel better right now? What's the point?

Summary: "Every day, Glennon Doyle spirals around the same questions: Why am I like this? How do I figure out what I want? How do I know what to do? Why can't I be happy? Am I doing this right? Each morning, she's somehow forgotten all the answers. She wonders: I'm almost fifty years old. I've learned a whole lot. Why do I wake up every day having forgotten everything I know? Her sister, Amanda, and her wife, Abby, are the people Glennon calls first when she's drowning, because they are her life preservers. Recently, in the span of a single year, Glennon was diagnosed with anorexia, Amanda was diagnosed with breast cancer, and Abby lost her beloved brother. For the first time, they were all drowning at the same time. So they turned toward the only thing that's ever saved them: deep, honest conversations with other brave, kind, wise people. They asked each other, their dearest friends, and 118 of the world's most brilliant wayfinders: Do you spiral around these questions all day, too? Do you have any answers? Two things became thrillingly clear: 1. We are not alone: Everyone swirls around the same 20 human questions. 2. We do not have to stay lost: There are answers. As they wrote down every life-saving answer they discovered, they realized they were creating their own personal survival guide. We Can Do Hard Things is that survival guide. This book is a place to turn to when you feel clueless and alone; when you need language for how you feel; when you need clarity in the chaos. A place not to learn-but to remember-what you already know. A place to save yourself, again and again"-- Provided by publisher.
