  • Autonomy and Aphasia

    My words glitch for me, and in my speech and in my writing. But I'm still the same person and have the right to be treated respectfully. I have autonomy, the right to make my decisions, and the right to have a bad day. And thank you for Grammarly making the podcast blurb make sense.

  • Fu@k Aphasia

    I had a stroke on November 8. I have aphasia. My whole life as words, and I'm losing them. Either by spoken or by writing, they're leaving me. This is my first trying to record them. It would be hard. I hoping to talking about the journey not just rehabilitation but my thoughts about how stroke is transforming my life.

  • A Funny Thing Happened - Latex

    Oh, allergies. They're so much fun! When I began using medical gloves at my job at a group home in my early 20's my body decided that latex could be added to my long list of allergies. Listen as I share my story of what came next...
    And yes, while I don't talk about sex per se, it's definitely part of the story! You've been forewarned! I hope you find it as amusing as I did...

  • Reflections ~ Let's Talk About Suicide

    Yes. Let's have a conversation about suicide. When Twitch died in December of 2022 millions of conversations were started about how he ended his own life. And that was a good thing. But, let's keep the conversation going. While I don't have all of the answers, no one really does, I can share some insights into the aftermath of a suicide, suicidal ideation, and where help can be found.

    Do you remember Eeyore from the Winnie the Pooh comics? Have you ever noticed that his friends don't just leave him to be on his own or stop asking if he wants to join in, even though he is clearly depressed? That's one of the ways you can help someone in your life who is like Eeyore, be their Winnie! And, if you're like Winnie to someone who's struggling, there is help for you, too. 

    Trigger warning

  • Reflections ~ Seeking Spirit

    Come with me on a journey to find Spirit in the gift of words. Poetry, prose, songs, they all have so much power and when they are done well, they can change how we think and feel about ourselves and the world around us. In this episode we'll listen to the words of Maya Angelou, Denise Levertov, with passages from the Song of Songs and the Therigatha and, even the Book of Common Prayer lol.
    If you are seeking Spirit, come.

  • Reflections ~ Meandering With an Old Friend

    When was the last time that you had a conversation without an agenda? A chat that was simply about shared memories, funny anecdotes and how - even though years, even decades, have passed, the company was easy and gives your soul rest. I highly recommend it...
