With hopelessness at unprecedented levels around the world, and a key predictor of suicide, violence, self-harm, and addiction, it is essential to teach the ‘how’ of hope. The Biggest Little Book About Hope by Kathryn Goetzke, MBA and Chief Hope Officer of the Shine Hope Company, teaches the hope skills necessary for anyone looking to integrate hope into their everyday lives.
Featuring honest depictions of Kathryn Goetzke’s own experiences with hopelessness and suicide, as well as the expertise of hope researchers and the creation of Goetzke’s own hope curriculums, The Biggest Little Book About Hopetakes readers on a journey of personal growth and discovery that leads them towards a more hope-filled future. In her book, Ms. Goetzke shares her own personal story of losing her father to suicide at age 18 and her own attempt in her 20’s and how that has informed her mission to ensure all know what hopelessness is, how to proactively manage it, and be equipped with skills to Shine Hope.
