EP10 - Belonging

Welcome back to Milkweed and Monarchs! I’m your host, Dawn Klem, and today’s episode is a deeply personal one—it’s about the power of connection. Have you ever felt like you didn’t quite belong? Like you were searching for a place where you could feel seen, understood, and valued? That’s exactly what Chris was searching for. When I first met him, his story was one of struggle—of loss, hardship, and moments of isolation. But what I didn’t realize at the time was how much his journey would teach me about resilience, hope, and the simple yet profound impact of human connection. This episode isn’t just about Chris—it’s about all of us. It’s about finding our place in the world and recognizing that sometimes, the smallest moments—a conversation, a shared experience, a simple act of kindness—can make all the difference. Let’s dive in.
