Thank You For Having Me: The Story Behind the Story

What does it mean to truly say, “Thank you for having me”?In this deeply personal opening episode of a new series, Joanne Avison reflects on the final hours recently spent with her mother, Stephani, and the profound sense of gratitude that emerged.What begins as a story about her passing becomes a tribute to connection, to family, to love and the invisible architecture that shapes a life. Joanne traces the lessons passed down through generations, from an adored grandfather and a thoughtful father to a remarkable mother whose influence will continue in the lives she shaped around her. You’ll hear:The simple phrase that inspired an entire seriesHow family values become part of who we areWhy gratitude can coexist with the sadness of griefThe stories, sayings, and lessons that shape a lifeWhat it means to carry those we love forward in our hearts How we begin to understand the house that made usThe connection between Joanne’s lifelong work on fascia and the themes explored in this seriesAlthough this series is more personal than Joanne's usual teaching, it remains deeply connected to the themes that have shaped her work for decades. Just as fascia folds, unfolds, adapts, and develops its own unique architecture, so too do the patterns of our lives. This series explores the people, experiences, and relationships that were being written into us long before we knew how to read them…The first of four short episodes, Thank You For Having Me is Joanne's tribute and exploration of the patterns, relationships, and experiences that shaped her life, and an invitation to reflect on your own.Thank you for being here. And, as always, thank you for having me. 🙏SIGN UP TO THE JOANNE AVISON NEWSLETTERSimply scroll down to ‘Join Our Collective’ and pop in your details.
