Kiona Mercer-Tremblay (AKA Sunshine) talks about her life growing up in Canada's foster care system, how that experience shaped her and still informs her experiences and interactions to this day. She also talks about what a gift meditation has been and shares the legacies of her parents, Maurice and Bernadette.

Have your tissues close at hand, this is an emotional and heart-rending story of courage, resilience, and ultimately...love.

INSIDE STORIES exists to foster connection in a world suffering and dying from disconnectivity. It seeks to examine the stories we tell and don’t tell and how that impacts us.

The INSIDE STORIES PEOPLE in PLACES PODCAST examines specifically our relationship with Place and its influence on our ways of existing, our beliefs about ourselves and others, and our sense of belonging…or not.
