The Conversation That Launched The SALT Talk: Reflections with Hope Hyder
12/12/24 • 35 min
As Season II of The SALT Talk with Jermine Alberty draws to a close, I’m honored to share a piece of the journey that started it all—my very first, never-before-released podcast episode. After sitting in the archives, this hidden gem is finally ready to see the light of day.
In this deeply moving and inspiring conversation, I sit down with my dear friend Hope Hyder for a reflection on life’s pivotal lessons.
Together, we explore the wisdom born from navigating challenges, the shared weight of personal trauma, and the transformative journey toward recovery. It’s a conversation laced with heartfelt laughter, honest vulnerability, and moments of profound healing.
Recorded in 2022, as the world cautiously stepped out of the shadows of the COVID-19 pandemic, this dialogue offers a lens into the resilience required to rebuild in times of uncertainty. Hope’s reflections on being "SALTY" in this world—Serving, Affirming, Loving, and Transforming—add even greater depth to this exchange, reminding us of the power of compassion and connection in the face of adversity.
This conversation wasn’t just a dialogue; it was a catalyst. It was the spark that inspired me to create The SALT Talk Podcast. Tune in to experience the raw authenticity of the moment that started it all and celebrate the journey of resilience and hope.
During this podcast, listeners were encouraged to call the Suicide Prevention Lifeline. Since then, the number has been simplified to 988, making it easier to access support. If you are feeling suicidal or need help, please don’t hesitate to reach out. You are not alone, and help is available.

Renew, Refresh, Resolve: The Three R's of Purposeful Resolutions
As we approach the new year, many of us start thinking about resolutions—those promises we make to ourselves to grow, improve, or do better. But let’s be honest: sticking to resolutions can be hard, right?
We want to introduce a fresh approach to setting goals for the new year. It’s inspired by the three R’s we often hear about in environmental sustainability: Reuse, Reduce, and Recycle. But what if we applied these principles to our personal lives? What if we used them as a framework for creating meaningful, impactful resolutions that truly resonate with who we are and what we value?
So, grab a notebook, your favorite cup of tea, or just a quiet moment as we dive into the Three R’s of Purposeful Resolutions!"
