Unabridged You
Greetings and Welcome to Unabridged You, the podcast that is dedicated to celebrating the entirety of who you are. We're not focused on societal roles or job titles; instead, we explore your unique stories, experiences, life lessons, and passions that contribute to the unabridged version of you.
Each week, we have the pleasure of sitting with remarkable individuals from diverse backgrounds. These guests include storytellers, artists, adventurers, environmental activists, and community builders - individuals who have carved their own paths in life.
In a world where we often feel compelled to prioritize certain aspects of ourselves over others, this podcast was created to honor your genuine self and acknowledge your many dimensions.
