Welcome to the Storyteller's Live podcast, where everyday people share real and personal stories.

Some are profound and challenging, while others are more common and relatable shared with

honesty and humor.

But all of these stories reveal what God can do in our lives when we trust him with the details.

Thanks for joining us.

Hi, everyone. This is your host, Kelly, from the Storyteller's Live team.

On each episode, a different woman shares her story, often in a live setting, with the bottom line being that God is good.

Today's Storyteller is one of our very own team members, Dawn, and we actually recorded

this back last

fall in 2017. But Don shared about how she struggled with feelings of abandonment and fear most

of her life, and she held tight to her story until she found the love of her Heavenly Father.

She would now tell you that her heart is open and she is a huge advocate

for vulnerability and storytelling. As you've probably heard me share before, Dawn is the founder

and producer of the Second Story's books. You'll actually get to hear in her story how this whole

idea came to be and how she took those steps of faith to make the vision a reality. We'll give you some

information at the end of the episode as well on how you can order your own copies of the

second story's books. And finally, I can't help the add that Dawn is incredibly talented.

She's a graphic designer. She designed our storyteller's life logo. She is built and designed our website.

And she also designs all of those scripture cards that we print for our local gatherings.

And then we also post a PDF form of those online because we would love for you, wherever you are, wherever you're listening from, for you to have one as well.

But without further ado, here is Dawn.

Well, this is my greatest fear sitting in this tree right here, so drop the mic.
