In the second of this 2-part series, hear what Taylor had to say about how she has managed to heal and find light in the aftermath of a shooting at her high school when she was 15 years old. (Listeners who have histories with gun violence will want to listen with caution, as this story may be especially triggering.) How can one find light in a situation this dark? Hear what Taylor has to say. Photo Credit: Olesja Allen
In this epsiode, you'll meet Josie. She healed her own broken heart after surviving a number of pregnancy losses, including a daughter - stillborn, at full term. Part of her healing came through the accidental finding (of what the scientific community calls) "flow" using a watercolor set. This conversation changed the way I think about most of the things I do each day - especially those that are mundane and repetitive. This is a connection you don't want to miss! Listen in, and catch all the light you can! Photo Credit: @amyandersonart ...
In the first of this two-part series for All I Know, we meet Grace and learn about one of the things that runs a thick highlighter over her strength. Even when one can survive - or even thrive in the midst of it - I think we can all agree that cancer sucks. Apart from being a Survivor, Grace fascinates us with her life as a Medico Legal Death Investigator and Aerial Circus Artist. Yep. She hangs from ceilings. By chains. And makes art and poetry with her body. "As my occupation, I dissect death. At the same time, I actively stare down my own mortality and shake my fist at its taunting. And also - I have, in fact, run away with the circus." Who can say they have walked these shoes? Only Grace. Pick up the first part of Grace's story here and prepare to catch even more light in Part 2! ...
Alba. In the third of this three-part series for "All I Know" (make sure you listen to Parts 1 and 2 before diving into Part 3!), Alba brings together the threads she has shared with us so far. This part of the conversation reflects on, as she says, "The brand new book of Alba that I was writing... on my own." Do not miss the installments of Alba's story; catch all the light you can from this Survivor and She-Warrior! ...
