Cyndie Spiegel, MICROJOYS: Finding Hope (Especially) When Life Is Not Okay

Zibby interviews author and inspirational speaker Cyndie Spiegel about Microjoys: Finding Hope (Especially) When Life Is Not Okay, a bighearted and intimate book of essays and prompts that shows us how to recognize the joys that are right in front of our eyes, even in moments of profound pain. Cyndie talks about the devastating tragedies that brought her to a dark place and the microjoys that kept her afloat (like seeing a beautiful picture of her late nephew). She also talks about growing up in poverty and how her life has transformed since then. Lastly, she shares a quick and easy tip for how to ground ourselves, be present, and identify the ordinary delights in our surroundings.
