A note from Jen:
I’ve been working the mental health field for the better part of the last two decades. And in that time, because of my work, I’ve had the great privilege of hearing countless stories. I often come away at the end of the day awed by the resilience of the human spirit and the the true grit it sometimes takes to survive the human experience.
I learn something about life and humanity from all of the stories I've been told, and there are many days when I want to share what I’ve learned. But, because of the part that I play in our community, I’m meant to be a keeper of those stories, tucking them away under a blanket of privacy and confidentiality.
But the healing power of storytelling could have a bigger and broader reach. So I decided that outside the counseling office, and on a larger scale, we needed a forum for everyday people to tell their stories. I believe we need to get back to the root of really taking the time to listen to each other’s experiences and draw from them.
This podcast is all about gathering light to help us find our way. Because we believe there is a valuable story behind every face, you'll find our storytellers are from all walks of life. Listen in, because as the saying goes, "Everyone you meet has something valuable to teach you." (Anonymous)
Catch all the light you can!
