Feeling hopeful can be difficult, especially when you’re faced with adverse circumstances. Hope is more than an emotion, however, and you can grow its presence in your life through careful planning and deliberate action. Employee assistance counselor Bob Cunningham,
MS, LPC, will guide you through a three-pronged approach for building a positive mindset. (This is the first of two live meetings in the Cultivating Hope workshop. After four weeks of email activities, the program will finish with another live session.)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
