In this deeply moving and thought-provoking episode, I sit down once again with Tom Delahunt – the mind behind The Wandering Lamb, The Butterfly Farmer, and the evolving identity of The Hobo Poet. We pick up where our last conversation left off and explore how Tom’s storytelling, immersive workshops, and growing partnerships are creating transformational experiences for children, educators, and communities. From Enchanted Gardens to butterfly sanctuaries in schools and care homes, Tom shares how his poetic vision and personal journey are impacting lives and reshaping educational spaces.
We also dive into the deeper purpose behind the work – the red threads of meaning that tie children to their creative selves, the value of being truly seen, and the importance of message over product. With upcoming projects, including a national tour and his nearly completed PhD, Tom’s story is one of passion, vulnerability, and radical imagination. Whether you're a tutor, teacher, creative, or parent, there’s something powerful here for anyone who believes in the healing and transformative power of storytelling. All the links, including his Kickstarter and Substack, are in the description – come and be part of the journey.
