We Are In This Together

Finding hope and opportunity in the depths of adversity

By: Beth Kempton

Narrated by: Beth Kempton

This global pandemic has disrupted life as we know it, in ways we could never have imagined. Even with the gradual easing of restrictions, many material challenges remain. The time has come to consider what happens next.

If this experience has made you realise you want to prioritise different things from now on, and set yourself up so you feel less vulnerable to sudden change in future, We Are in This Together will help you do that.

If you are feeling anxious about the uncertainty, and the long-term implications of the pandemic, We Are in This Together will help you cope with that.

If your industry or livelihood has been impacted and you need to find new and meaningful ways to generate income while juggling your other responsibilities, We Are in This Together will help you prioritise so you can do that.

It is a practical and inspiring compass for navigating these turbulent times, helping you to stay calm, figure out what matters most, and lay the groundwork for renewal so you can re-imagine life beyond this.

The road ahead is long, but we are in this together, and we will get through this together.

And maybe, just maybe, the world will be a better place on the other side.

Like An Encouraging Conversation With a Friend

This short little gem feels like a lovely sigh and moment of compassionate mindfulness. Now I know many of us will not be able to directly relate to some of the things Beth mentions (she is a published author who has been able to travel the world on a pretty regular basis and is an entrepreneur who has been able to work from home and make her own hours), however I think this is a book that offers an opportunity for simple reflections and a moment to recenter in the wake of a pandemic. This is not a heavy hitting book on the nitty gritty elements that have arisen during this global crisis (though overarching struggles are absolutely mentioned), it feels like a kind conversation of encouragement from a friend. This was a welcome listen and the simple and kind sentiments were appreciated. This is a lovely restorative listen for those that may just be taking a day or afternoon for themselves and want to sit, listen, and allow themselves an exhale. Really recommend for those looking for a bit of comfort and some gentle self reflection.
