Dear Dad, The World Is Different Since You Left
We love when our community members send in voice memos of their unsents from home! This one is extra special, heartfelt and heartbreaking, from our friend Priscilla Dann-Courtney.Priscilla is a psychologist and writer. She and her husband of 42 years raised three children. And she likes to say even though we are all growing older, the emphasis has to be on the growing and doing new things. So at 68, she started standup comedy to remember the importance of laughter and challenge of making ourselves BIG and center stage. Her columns have appeared in numerous national publications, and her book, Room to Grow, Stories of Life and Family (Norlights Press, 2009) is a collection of her essays. She dreams of becoming a peach farmer bringing sweetness and healing to a struggling world.We're thrilled to announce that Priscilla is one of our ten brave readers getting on the mic sharing a whole new message at our Unsent Send Off Show on May 8th!Be sure to get your tix at unsentshow.com to join us in person or via live stream.Take good care of yourselves and each other, keep sending those unsents, and we'll be back with you next week.Love,Britt

Dear Jack, My Favorite Thai Masseuse
Every once in a while we like to go back into the Unsent archives and share some of the very first Unsents Britt ever wrote. Britt's therapist told her to write a letter to Jack, her regular massage therapist who decided that one evening, he was going to rub her in new private places without her consent. She said nothing, let him do it, did nothing, froze, freaked out, over tipped him and ran out, even thanking him. And she still carries shame and confusion from this assault experience with her. In fact, she tried but couldn't even share it on the mic at the very first Unsent show she co-hosted with Hanna Bowens (our beloved former at her home in Silverlake, LA, back in Oct 2017.Sometimes this is the only place we can put things. And we release whenever and however we can to achieve some catharsis and healing.Thank you for being with us on this Unsent healing journey, however complicated it may be.And don't forget to please join us in person or live stream on Fri May 8th for our Unsent Send Off Show in Denver!

Dear Partner: Let's Get Married! But first, 40 reasons I love you.
This episode is extra special. It went down at Rock Steady (now Wide Right) Bar in Denver in Feb 2020, right before Covid...It was the first (and only), so far!) time someone read an Unsent to someone in the audience. And it was one of the first times Britt, Unsent host, shared a message of her own on the mic.Since this show, so much has happened for all of us. And...Britt and Saxon did get married - a few times! In fact, one time was at an Unsent Show in April 2023! But we'll get to that in a future episode.For now, enjoy this honest, raw, loving, funny - and sometimes shocking - list of reasons why Britt loves her partner-now-husband, Saxon, who produces Unsent with Britt as part of their Three Things healing arts non profit, offering music and writing offerings for healing.Join us live in Denver for our FRIENDS EDITION, Jan 25 2025 8pm at Town Hall Collaborative!

Unsent Show Episode 11: Brianna Carey
Special guest and friend of Unsent, Brianna Carey, listened to the recording of her Unsent she read aloud at Unsent Show on April 22, 2023 in Denver, and she was inspired by how much she's grown since then in every way. It propelled her to write these powerful words:"My fire was a bridge to self-discovery. The path to self-discovery is a never ending one but I experienced a reckoning as I experienced the transformative qualities of fire. I continue to trailblaze through my work with others as I help them to discover, know and share their unique gifts. Through creative collaboration and ushering people forward on their journey towards self-actualization, I continue to experience my own growth. My continued work is not just my career but the medicine and inspiration I get to offer to the world, to help liberate humanity in all of its manifestations– physical, mental, spiritual and emotional. I am a conscious creative– working on brand development and intuitive design. I am a medicine carrier– studying on the Mayan Path with Maestra Nataline R. Cruz. I am a movement magician, teaching much more than yoga from the four corners of my mat. I hope that my story will inspire others to live in their bliss, not because a fire forces them to do so, but because it is their inherent right."Join her @bcareyincAnd join us at Unsent live in Denver for our Unsent Show - Friends Edition on Sat Jan 25th!
