This week at Maplewood, we're exploring where to find hope. Hope isn't something to be achieved as much as it is a direction toward which we live our lives. Take a few moments as we break down how to find real hope in a world of despair, depression, and doomscrolling.

Today on the show, we are treated to a great conversation with Marcus Foligno of the Minnesota Wild. Marcus lost his mother, Janis, to Breast Cancer in 2009, and he and his brother Nick, who plays for Chicago, have an amazing charitable opportunity for everyone to join.    Thanks to Minnesota Masonic Charities (mnmasoniccharities.org/), OnX Maps (onxmaps.com/), Lexus of Wayzata (lexusofwayzata.com/), Lexus of Maplewood (lexusofmaplewood.com/), & StretchLab (stretchlab.com/)
