description
Full Spirals is a storytelling podcast that promotes hope and healing through the arts, and life’s little “coincidences” that lead to personal growth. The emphasis of the episodes is around how the arts can be used to heal and grow, but the “Sages Series” episodes have an emphasis on women 60+. Badass women who have stories to tell. We shine a light on local and national women and the stories of their lives. With a loyal group of “Spinners”, Full Spirals has tripled its listenership since its inception in 2021 and is rated in the top 10% of podcasts globally.
Additionally, there are now local “Sages Story Circles” which are grant funded circles, (free for participants) designed to empower, connect and uplift women 60+ in our community. From these circles episodes are being produced to not only highlight their stories, but also ensure that they do not go unheard.
