Albom shares a recent review from The London Times about Tuesdays with Morrie, written by a journalist who recently discovered the memoir nearly three decades after its release, simply because life had finally prepared him for its message.

    Episode 221 - Clean Slates
    Jan 7 2025
    What comes to mind when you hear the phrase "a clean slate"? Maybe it conjures an image of fresh, untrodden snow—a bright white canvas untouched by the past. A new year offers that same sense of possibility: a reset button, a chance to rewrite your story, redefine your values, and set new intentions. It’s an opportunity to step forward with a renewed perspective, leaving behind the weight of old mistakes or regrets. In this episode of the Tuesday People podcast, host Mitch Albom—along with wisdom from his former professor, Morrie Schwartz—explores what it means to begin again, and how embracing a clean slate can help us live with more purpose and clarity. As we step into this new chapter, consider what you'll leave behind—and more importantly, what you'll carry forward into the life you’re building. A new year, a new start, and a new chance to become the best version of yourself. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
