When Maggie Smith, the award-winning author of the viral poem "Good Bones", started writing daily Twitter posts in the wake of her divorce, they unexpectedly caught fire. Now, in her new book "Keep Moving: Notes on Loss, Creativity, and Change" she's writing about new beginnings as opportunities for transformation. Like kintsugi, the Japanese art of mending broken ceramics with gold, Keep Moving celebrates the beauty and strength on the other side of loss. There is perhaps no better book for our times.  Connect with Maggie on IG @maggiesmithpoet and at https://maggiesmithpoet.com Get the KEEP MOVING book Connect with my on IG @motherhoodunstressed About Maggie Maggie Smith is the author of three books of poetry: Good Bones (Tupelo Press, 2017); The Well Speaks of Its Own Poison (2015); and Lamp of the Body (Red Hen Press, 2005).

Who doesn’t need a friend—and a book—like that?”  —Glennon Doyle “Every once in a long, long while a book comes along that challenges and changes everything. Keep Moving is exactly that book: an ingenious synthesis of poetry, proverbs, journaling, lyrical prose, belles-lettres, psalms, meditations, and aphorisms. It defies any tidy definition, and thus, practically defines a new genre that gives everyone—no matter what walk of life—the gift of pausing to reflect on what we didn’t know we already knew about ourselves because we never had words for it, until Maggie Smith. These pages give us a unique and poetic opportunity to recognize the joys within our failures, the peace within our terrors, the simplicity within our complex lives—and then some! It is sure to become a classic that will be read for decades to come.”  —Richard Blanco “In Keep Moving, poet Maggie Smith takes what William James called a ‘torn-to-pieces-hood’ and knits it into something new and surprising and fortifying. I’m so grateful for the clarity, compassion, and wit in these pages. This is a book that will change you, a book you will want to give to someone you love. I’ve never read anything quite like it.”  —Lucy Kalanithi Praise for Good Bones “Smith’s voice is clear and unmistakable as she unravels the universe, pulls at a loose thread and lets the whole thing tumble around us, sometimes beautiful, sometimes achingly hard. Truthful, tender, and unafraid of the dark, the poems in Good Bones are lyrically charged love letters to a world in desperate need of her generous eye.” —Ada Limón “In her wondrous new poetry collection, Good Bones, Maggie Smith has much to tell us. And she does so with such a clean, aching clarity of lyricism that I discover now frequently exhausted human touchstones freshly, with real surprise. It’s Smith’s dynamically precise and vivid images, and her uncanny ability to find just the right word or action to crack open our known experience, that make Good Bones an extraordinary book. Maggie Smith demonstrates what happens when an abundance of heart and intelligence meets the hands of a master craftsperson, reminding us again that the world, for a true poet, is blessedly inexhaustible.” —Erin Belieu

Holocaust Survivor William Harvey is adamant that if you want to have a good life, you can't feel sorry for yourself or “you will destroy your life.” He adds, "You come to this world with nothing and you leave the world with nothing but the impact and the good that you did for others". This episode was an honor to record. I hope it awakens you to the beauty and divinity of your own life, positively shifts your current perspective, and inspires you to reach out and help someone less fortunate than you today.   Born in 1924 in the Czech Republic, William Harvey’s graduation in 1943 was quickly followed by deportation to Auschwitz on a 4-day cattle car ride. He was later transferred to Buchenwald and freed when the Americans liberated the death camp in April 1945.  Harvey went on to build a successful life as a cosmetologist in Beverly Hills working with some of Hollywood's biggest stars like Judy Garland and Mary Martin. "There is a destiny which makes us brothers; none goes his way alone. All that we send into the lives of others comes back into our own." Edwin Markham Quotes from the Episode “Happiness is the way you perceive things in life, we all have to go through difficulties, we have to overcome it." "To help someone who is less fortunate than you, that is the greatest thing you can achieve in life."  "Theres certain things in life you cannot help, but if you feel sorry for yourself, you destroy your life." "I look forward to getting up everyday to help people." "You come to this world with nothing and you leave the world with nothing but the impact and the good that you do for others."  "Life is beautiful and all the beauty in life is free." "Enjoy every day..all the material things in life don't bring happiness...life is what you make it, you have to make it yourself." "Everyone has a special attribute that can contribute to a happy life, if they use their brain and think." "Enjoy every single day that God gives you, and don't ask questions, there are a lot of things with no answer."
