My Unsung Hero

Julia Minson's Story


Listen Later

When Julia's mother was struggling with late-stage cancer, Julia had a conversation with a doctor that made her feel heard.

Do you have your own story of an unsung hero? We'd love to hear it! Record a voice memo and email it to us at [email protected]

Some guidance:

--Focus on ONE moment that you will never forget. 

--Make sure you're in a quiet, non-echoey room.

--Speak conversationally, like you're talking to a friend.

--Let us know why this person continues to impact your life.

--If your hero were standing front of you today, what would you say? Address them directly.

-- Here are some tips on how to make a great recording on your phone.

Thank you!
