Intro; Full Circle: Real Stories from the Heart of Santa Fe Boys and Girls Clubs
Welcome to Full Circle, a new podcast that brings you real stories from different perspectives, shaped and structured in scenes with characters and reflection, inspired by the storytelling style of This American Life. I'm Jonathan and I'm Mateo, interns with SFCCI and Work Based Learning, tasked with creating a podcast this summer that is meaningful and real.
Our podcast explores the Boys and Girls Clubs of Santa Fe, a place deeply intertwined with the community and serving as a second home for many kids. Through interviews with individuals who have been part of the clubs since childhood, we discovered a common theme of growth, support, and belonging. The stories we collected led us to the realization that where you begin in life shapes who you become, and often, you find yourself returning to those roots to give back.
Full Circle is made up of two episodes, recorded in a Boys and Girls Club setting, capturing the authentic sounds of children laughing and learning in the background. The first episode, titled "Before the Break," delves into the origins and influences that shape individuals, featuring interviews with key figures such as the CEO of Santa Fe Boys and Girls Club and a successful architect who attribute their success to their early experiences.
The second episode, "Nostalgia," explores the enduring impact of the past on the present, evoking powerful emotions and memories that shape our identities and sense of home. Through interviews with the director of the Santa Fe Boys and Girls Tech Club and a former club kid turned employee, we witness how the past lingers in our voices, choices, and overall outlook on life.
Whether you have a connection to the Boys and Girls Clubs or not, we hope that these stories resonate with you, prompting moments of reflection and recognition. Ultimately, Full Circle reminds us that understanding where we are going often requires looking back at where we started. Join us on this journey of self-discovery and nostalgia as we explore the enduring impact of our roots in shaping who we are today. This is Full Circle.
