Episode 143: Get Used to Disappointment | A Conversation with Dr. Julie Hanks

In Episode 143, she joins Cynthia and Susan to talk more about actually applying that statement in our lives and relationships. Why might it be hard for Latter-day Saint women to believe our choices don’t have to please everyone—or even anyone—else?
