Welcome to the Deep in the Woods podcast, where we dive into the impact of language while exploring meaningful places from our lives.

In this episode, I take you on a stroll around an old farm with a house that belonged to my great-great-great grandparents, William Tedford McEntyre and Sarah Hall McEntyre. We'll be exploring and digging deep into the word "Sacred."

We'll dig into family history, reflecting on whether stories from our ancestors carry the same weight as those from our immediate family. We'll also ponder the idea of leaving a legacy and whether it still matters as much today as it did in the past.

But it's not all nostalgia. We'll confront the uncomfortable truths too, like grappling with the actions of our ancestors, including owning slaves and displacing Native Americans.

Throughout our walk, we'll be sharing some thought-provoking quotes, like this one from Doctor Who: "We are all stories in the end, make yours a good one." And of course, some wisdom from Benjamin Franklin: "If you would not be forgotten, as soon as you are dead and rotten, either write things worth reading, or do things worth writing."

So, come along as we explore the past, present, and the power of words in the Deep in the Woods podcast.

This episode is part one of a three part episode. Check back soon for the next in the series!
