Hello, I was asked to be part of the radio show/podcast #GodForbid the other week to talk about #purityculture. I was somehow simultaneously over and under prepared, but I think I've learned a lot about how to be better if there is a next time.

My article with @VCounted is now out - on hope in marginalized communities.

Psychologists generally define hope in terms of positive affect and cognition, but we argue that it can incorporate negativity.

It's open access - let us know what you think!
