Host Rachel Thexton Year-End Monologue-Darkness Before The Dawn.

An Impressive Sunrise is Attainable…. if we Unite.  As we prepare for 2024,  I share my thoughts on this year,  guests I was fortunate to welcome to my podcast in the first part of season two, my personal struggles this year, as well where I see hope and how I have been inspired. I look ahead and pray for connection as we work towards solutions to overwhelming obstacles that we can only fight with a full team, inch by inch. Isn’t that what Al Pacino says in his famous Any Given Sunday speech? “That’s what living is, the six Inches in front of your face.”? This monologue was a favourite of Kamloops Teacher, Advocate, Mother and Warrior Troylana Manson’s son Aaron Mitchel Manson who passed away in April of 2021. It has also always been a favourite speech of mine. Let’s fight. Let’s learn from history and unite.
