How My Story Helps People

Storytelling has been known to have significant impacts on not only the one sharing their story, but it also breaks down barriers and creates a vast amount of connection. My intense hope is that through my story others will be able to find connections within the recovery, spirituality, and LGBTQ+ communities. Ultimately, leading to them sharing their stories. As my drug dealer shared her story with me, she had no idea the impact she would make within my life in that moment. We all have a story and that story has the potential to ripple out and help other people. These ripples make this world so much more connected and a much smaller (and more beautiful) place.

 

Media Types/Tools

Initial recordings were created with roughly 45 chapters that span and length of 15 hours of unedited and hyper-raw material. A workbook will accompany the book/e-book/audiobook encourage journaling of initial thoughts and ah-ha moments while outlining key concepts. The workbook will be structured for individual reflection, one-on-one, or group work.
