What experience opened something in you, and changed the way you see the world?
An Opening is a storytelling podcast that curates human experiences like works of art —kept in their own words, held without judgment, and offered at an unhurried pace. Come as you are. Bring your willingness to listen. Notice what you recognize in yourself.
Why people listen
Stories in our guests' own words: The teller remains sovereign; we preserve language and meaning.
A steady room. We listen like entering a museum, quiet, present, child-curious.
Common ground. Recognition arrives quietly. You may find yourself saying, “I know something of this.”

The Long Walk Back
Marie Thompson
“I practiced the apology a dozen times. When I saw her, all that came out was ‘Hi,’ and somehow that was true enough.” — Marie Thompson. The long walk back, in one word.
The Art of Curiosity
At An Opening, we practice the Art of Curiosity: sincere questions, courageous listening, and openings where connection can grow.
