In this episode, join your host Amanda Rocheleau in a heartfelt conversation with Tarky Lee, an Oakland, California-based artist, writer, and professional child care provider.
Together, we delve into the timeless tale that touched our hearts – Shel Silverstein's "The Giving Tree." This beloved story became a catalyst for both of us to reflect on our patterns of over-giving and inspired a journey towards self-compassion and personal growth.
TarkyLee shares her unique perspective by crafting her own version of the story, where love and hope become the seeds for new growth. Our discussion goes beyond the narrative, exploring the challenges and rewards of being caregivers, the importance of acknowledging and feeling our emotions, and the valuable life lessons we've gathered along the way.
This episode marks the beginning of a two-part interview, so be sure to check out part 2 for even more insights and reflections.
Thanks for join us on The Giving Tree Podcast as we unravel the threads of connection woven through storytelling and life experiences.
