As you may have read in previous posts we were blessed with a summer intern, Alex, a communications/journalism major.  This is another one of the podcasts Alex produced for Strength for Life to help share our story in a more personal way. 

Thank you Alex, and thank you Maggie for sharing!

Survivor Podcast 3, Meet Annmarie

You may remember....

In May, Strength for Life received a phone call from a Boston University Communications/Journalism student offering his expertise as an intern for the summer.

Poor Alex, we had more work for him than he could have imagined, and rolled around many ideas. In the end, we decided on podcasts of our survivors and classes. He had his focus.

Alex has finished 5 video "survivor podcasts" for us, has a radio PSA on tap and a podcast of Dr. Siobhan from Inner Source Health.



Thank you, Alex!!!

Gratitude is the inward feeling of kindness received. 
  
Thankfulness is the normal impulse to express that feeling. 

Thanksgiving is the following of that impulse.
