When Autumn Comes: Seasons of Hope for Medical + Disability Moms13 Juni 2024

Daniel | Storytelling

As we approach Father's Day, we welcome back Daniel for what has now become his annual holiday visit to the podcast. Daniel first spoke with us in 2022. Check out the link below to give the original interview a listen, I promise it's a good one. Since we last spoke, Daniel has been busy sharing his own story and helping other parent's to do the same. Today, we discuss the art and importance of storytelling. We see how the sharing of a story can bring together communities and help those who are isolated, feel less so. The stories we share are shared uniquely from our own perspective. When our children are unable to share their own stories, we are able, in a small way, to give a voice to the voiceless.

"For anyone who's thinking of sharing their story there is a benefit to you personally, even if you just shove that story in your dresser drawer and never show anybody."-Daniel

Here's what you don't want to miss:
