I Hope So: How to Choose Hope Even When It’s Hard with Dr. Robyne Hanley-Dafoe

In today’s conversation Robyne Hanley-Dafoe explores why hope is not the same thing as optimism—and why clinging to outcomes can backfire when life gets hard. She and Dr. Wells unpack “agency thinking” as the antidote to control spirals, then translate that mindset into practical micro-steps: get safe, get resourced, and choose the next right move. They also emphasize that we’re not wired to “goal alnhrough the nervous system. You will learn how Robyne distinguishes hope from optimism (and why that matters under pressure), how to replace control-chasing with agency (what you can influence right now), and how to use “pathway thinking” to identify one realistic next step instead of trying to solve everything at once. You’ll also learn her “get to the shore” approach for moments when you’re overwhelmed. You will discover that hope isn’t a personality trait—it’s a skill you can practice to keep moving forward without needing perfect certainty or a guaranteed outcome. This episode helps the listener break out of the loop of “I must fix this right now” and move toward a more proactive approach that is achievable and sustainable.
