S2:E5 Sometimes Our Dragons Help Us

from nocrumbsleft table talks · host nocrumbsleft

In this episode, Dallas shares the moment that inspired the Red Fred Project, a crowd-funded venture that publishes books written by children living with life-threatening illnesses--kids who have seen and understood things far beyond their years. The power of collaboration and the power of having a vision have fueled this project (in addition to a well-timed tweet by Neil Gaiman), which is on its way to 50 books, 50 children, 50 states, sharing kids’ wisdom and sending them royalty checks. Sometimes our dragons help us.

I'm Patti and it's been said - many times - that I talk too much. I'm a teacher, author, nature lover and for ten years I owned a coffeehouse cafe where my faith in the goodness of humans was restored every day. This podcast highlights the awesomeness of humanity - er...outside the warmongers, globalists, tyrants and politicians in general. You know, the rest of us weird, quirky and sometimes hilarious humans. We'll talk woo, probe mysteries and leave you thinking about something more interesting or entertaining or uplifting than your grocery list, or boss or that oil change your car needs. I talk too much because I can't help my Gemini moon and Leo Rising nature. I do a podcast because it's cheaper, funnier and more productive than therapy.
