Hi, this is Austin, and I'm one of the show's producers. As many of you know, we are in the process

of looking for an executive director to join our team at the Allender Center at the Seattle School.

Our search committee is currently seeking applicants, and we deeply value your imagination on our

behalf. If you or someone you know might be a good fit for this role, please visit the

Seattle School.edu forward slash jobs, and click on the executive director link under open positions.

Thank you for listening to the Allender Center podcast. I'm Dr. Dan Allender.

And I'm Rachel Clinton-Centon. We're fiercely committed to providing hope and healing

to a fragmented world.

And restoration for the heart.

Thank you for joining us.

Let's get this conversation started.

Rachel, we have a sweet privilege today to again, come back to the category of story.

How do we read and engage our own story?

And how, by reading our own story, do we have a better lens for being able to read and engage the stories of others?

And today, oh my goodness, we have a delightful

person, woman, who has been involved actually in a number of podcasts before, but a number of

years ago. But Susan Cunningham, welcome. Welcome. Thanks for joining us.

And what we'd love to do is just to start with an obvious question, and that is, who are you?

We have the privilege of knowing you, but most of our audience does not.

Who are you?

Well, nothing like starting out with a small question.

That is honestly the question I've been trying to figure out my whole life.
