🎙️ FS 78 – Relaunch Episode: Meet the New Hosts; Umah, Sam, Olivia
Manage episode 520478189 series 2585073
In today's episode, the Facilitation Stories podcast returns with a brand-new hosting team — Olivia, Sam, and Umah — who share their stories, inspirations, and hopes for the next chapter of the podcast.
They talk about:
Why they joined the Facilitation Stories team and what excites them about podcasting as a way to connect facilitators and share learning.
How their diverse backgrounds — from healthcare and construction to creative arts, community engagement and youth work — have shaped their facilitation practice.
The power of collaboration and curiosity in creating spaces for reflection, learning, and human connection and what underpins their hopes for this podcast series
And, of course, an important conversation about pets, TV guilty pleasures, and favourite biscuits! 🍪
"It's about creating space where people can make sense of their own stories — and find belonging in shared spaces."
"Sometimes, facilitation is about slowing down, thinking, and making time for the conversations we don't usually have."
