With this podcast I’m looking to improve connection and storytelling not only in my immediate community but worldwide. I truly believe that one of our problems as a human race is that we have social media platforms that show us highlights of life, snippets of the truth, really. The issue? We don't take the time to truly listen to each other's stories or find the connections that tie us together. The human journey is made up of so many layers, and I want to peel back those layers and get to know who you are underneath. The goal is to reconnect, slow down and travel back to a time when humans sat around fires and shared their best, exciting tales and created verbal stories that others passed on, legacies.

Fireside Stories: Danielle Joworski
In the sixteenth episode of Fireside Stories, we welcome Danielle Joworski, who will talk to us about how she learned to believe in and trust herself.
"The harder I worked, the harder things became. A pause created my greater failures that have become my biggest successes today. Once I believed in myself and embraced vulnerability to be seen for who I am, I'm able to help other women to stop working harder, create their biggest successes, and become visible to themselves and those they want to be seen by." - Danielle

Fireside Stories: Krystal Snider
We often see horrific acts of abuse and pain in the news, but have you ever really thought about what happens after the headlines go away? Krystal Snider has and is one of those people helping those after the trauma.
The fifteenth episode of Fireside Stories may be a bit heavy, and I want the viewers and listeners to be aware that nothing said in this interview is taken lightly. Be mindful that triggers are real, so please ensure you have the support system that you need before watching or listening. I’m honoured to be speaking with a woman with such strength and heart. It takes a special kind of person to stand up and guide those who have also been affected by violence towards hope, as Krystal does. Today she’ll be talking to us about Human trafficking in Canada, Surviving Trafficking and Supporting survivors.

While completing her studies, Rhiannon has been forced to wade through her own personal trauma and write through the tears. It's been a period of eminence growth and life path realizations.
