The Say The Word Podcast

Where Curiosity Meets Language


Curiosity is a skill.

It’s at the heart of how we move away from judgment and into real learning, empathy, and forward motion.

Like all skills, there are tools to help us develop, grow, and hone curiosity.

Language is one of those tools.

The Say The Word podcast is where we look at how language is used in literature, memoir, poetry, and all kinds of fiction and nonfiction to connect us to what it means to be human and how to use curiosity to peel back the layers of what is keeping us from living the rich, meaningful lives we were always meant to be living.
