This podcast is a space for real, honest, and meaningful conversation. I explore poetry, literature, healing, relationships, and the deep importance of connection—not just with others, but also with ourselves. While we talk about the beauty and significance of relationships, we also dive into the vital act of staying true to who we are. It’s easy to lose ourselves in the world and in the connections we cherish, but this space is a reminder that being in relationship with others should never mean abandoning ourselves. Whether I’m sharing my own journey or talking with guests, my goal is to create a space where stories and experiences bring us closer together. I believe that through sharing, we find understanding, and through connection, we find a sense of belonging.

YOUR FATHER’S SON

Your soul was large
It needed to consume newness
again and again
But the Chicago frontier
Hemmed you in
You couldn't expand.
So you crossed the cold,
Impersonal Atlantic
To the hot,
Exploding Italian front
Where death nearly took you.
It was simple, you said
You looked at it and knew
But you consumed it and moved
Gaining immunity, it seemed
For death couldn't take you
On its own- though it tried
again and again
But it couldn't take you –
until Ketchum
Where your father's shadow waited.

Thank you for listening.
