Release Day: The Possibility of Happy

Today, *The Possibility of Happy: A Field Guide to Applied Possibility* is out in the world.

That feels strange to type, because this book has lived so many lives before this one. It has been a conversation, a notebook, a grief process, a rebuild, a stack of edits, a promise, and sometimes a stubborn little light I kept carrying even when I did not know exactly where it was leading.
