2020 was difficult. Everyone struggled to some degree. And while some learned and grew and did wonderful things, others fell apart and many just struggled with their emotions and navigating their ways through a brave new world. Sharing how we coped (and continue to cope) in the face of unprecedented change can heal, inspire, reflect and educate. On The Burnt Podcast, we will discuss the emotional rollercoasters that have been our Covid-affected lives. From success stories to tragedies, comic misadventures to tales of love found and lost. We will, with wit and respect, bring forth galvanizing stories, fascinating perspectives and voices that deserve to be heard, raw and unfiltered. We will create a forum for sharing unique and authentic experiences in the hopes of not only entertaining and touching our audiences, but, if possible, elucidating some small corners of the universal human Experience. 2020 was the year of isolation, but we were not, and are not, alone.
