They Called Me Jeli: Your Name is a Story is a reflection on names, identity, and the quiet power of memory. Dr. Dwayne Gelly takes listeners on a journey through childhood moments, ancestral whispers, and spiritual revelations to explore how names can both confine and call us forward. In this episode, he introduces the concept of the “marketplace” — a narrative therapy tool that helps us identify the stories we’ve inherited. With poetic insight and cultural wisdom, this episode invites you to reexamine who named you, what you’ve picked up along the way, and how to reclaim the pen as the author of your truth.
