Now that we have our ground rules (Ep. 0), a name for the podcast (Ep. 0.02) and two practice runs in (during which we have hopefully worked out the major kinks), we thought the best place to start might be, well, the beginning. Welcome to Episode 1: The Origin Story. While I never set out to be a content creator, influencer, podcaster or online personality of any kind, it certainly has been a wonderful journey so far. And while it has brought with it both times of heartache and moments of pure joy, above all I am grateful for the sense of purpose it has given me - which was missing in some aspect of my life. Thank you for allowing us a space to share my story and for your continued support in this journey.
