Episode 68: The Circle of Life with Pete Springer
from Sharing the Heart of the Matter · host SharingHoTM
In this episode, Vicki Atkinson and Wynne Leon are with blogger, author, retired elementary school teacher and great storyteller, Pete Springer. Pete’s storytelling is fantastic. And the fun twist with this particular story is that the story I told about trying to rescue Buttercup the bunny in episode 66 is what prompted Pete to volunteer to tell us about the great adventures of class pets. That’s the connective tissue of stories. We tell a story and it takes the listener someplace. Hopefully someplace worth going. Pete also shares with us the impact he’s seen for storytelling across the generations. Regardless of age, there is an intimacy when we dare to utter our personal narratives. Please join us for the scenic and beautiful places we go when we share the power of story. We know you'll love it.
