The Song of Myself

The stories we tell ourselves, who we think we are, what we believe we are capable of may be one of the biggest influences on how we behave, who we become, and what we can accomplish.

In this episode, we explore the way personal narratives affect the shape of our real-world footprints. Up first, storyteller and graduate student Cory Howard weaves together the lives of three random people who look back on some of their most impactful stories, connecting them to where they are now in their life journey. In part two, Addiction specialist and longtime medical veteran, Dr. Schuyler Geller, discusses what it takes to change the narrative of yourself with a former patient and opioid addict, who has learned how to reclaim her life by telling a different story.
