Participant Interview: Beth Joseph

In this episode of the Searching Inward Podcast, Seth Abram and Anna Bryant speak with Beth Joseph about her experience with Restore Small Groups. Beth shares how her first small group made her feel seen, which allowed her to be the fullest version of herself. She also discusses how this inspires her to return and participate in multiple groups.“From week one to week eight, I feel like those people, even to this day–I don’t know, a year and a half later since we had that first group–like they know me better than people who have known me for 10 years.” -Beth [10:08]“I remember you walking in that first day and just being a little frazzled and late and being brave to just walk into a room of people, and then to come back again, just slowly let your story unfold with these people. Man, what a gift. What a gift.” -Anna [10:49]“That is some of the magic of the process. We create this safe environment where you can name the painful parts of your life, the struggles, the issues, and you’re still accepted like you’re alluded to earlier. You’re still ok in the eyes of everyone. There’s non-judgement that fills the room.” -Seth [19:16]TIMESTAMPS[00:05] Intro[00:54] This week’s guest, Beth[04:28] What drew Beth to join a Restore Small Group[06:05] Her experience with Restore[11:10] The contrast between Week 1 and Week 8[21:28] What Beth uncovered about herself[26:27] A pitch for Restore Small Group[28:00] Rapid fire questionsFollow and ContactFacebook: Restore Small GroupsInstagram: @restoresmallgroupsYouTube: Searching Inward PodcastWebsite: restoresmallgroups.org
