Hey stranger.

Hello to everyone listening.

My name is Theraya.

This is the Hey Stranger podcast.

And before we start, let me set the scene for you.

I'm currently sitting in a chair on my local park, which also happens to be one of the biggest

tourist attractions in my city.

Across from me is an empty chair and on today's and every episode.

That empty chair will be filled one by one by people of different backgrounds, mindsets,

and walks of life.

The only criteria is that they are a stranger.

Hi everyone, Theraya here.

So this week we're going to be doing things a little bit different.

I have this voicemail set up to where anyone could call in and leave me a secret.

And so today for the episode, I'll be sharing some of those secrets with you.

And before we start on today's episode, I also want to give a trigger warning because a

lot of the secrets that were shared deal with sensitive topics.

Let's get started.

I love you all.

And here we go.

Hey, you've reached Theraya's voicemail.

Don't leave your name or number.
