THE PODCAST
WE’RE ALL
ALRIGHT
Doing the best we can & doing better every day
I’m Phyllis Wilson, and I want you to know we’re all going to be alright.
(Little secret between friends? We already are.)
I know, I know. You can’t tell from the headlines or the evening news.
But there are a whole lot of people doing their best and learning to do better. And that’s how I know we’ll change the world.
We’re All Alright is a podcast where I explore all the reasons we have to be hopeful, even joyful, about humanity and our world today. So that, instead of feeling like all is lost, we wake up every morning and think, “Cool. We’re going to be alright.”
Because if there’s one thing I’ll never lose faith in, it’s our collective power to make things right.
