The Missing Chapter Podcast

Dirty Laundry


Listen Later

You’ve probably heard this before, but what makes ordinary people do extraordinary things?  Does extraordinary require an intrinsic or extrinsic motivator?  Is it something that is hidden within someone and is only activated when it is absolutely necessary?  Is it based on survival, doing whatever it takes to continue to live?  Or is it based on the love of another person, or correcting an injustice, or simply for a social, political, religious cause?  It’s hard to say, and honestly, if you’re looking for answers to those questions, unfortunately, I don’t think this episode will provide that, however, what we can do is provide an example of an extraordinary hero, an unsung hero, and all this person had to do was air her dirty laundry.  Wait, what does dirty laundry have to do with being a hero?  Well, hopefully this episode of the Missing Chapter will educate and motivate, and show our listeners that something as simple as airing your dirty laundry, in the most literal sense mind you, can actually be used as a tool for a cause greater than the courageous person carrying out the act.  Let’s continue this conversation, welcome to the Missing Chapter classroom, everyone, let’s get started.
