In this solo episode, I reset expectations for the year ahead, reflect on what Visible Kindness truly represents, and explain why the direction of the show has shifted in a meaningful way.

I also share why my own documentary and memoir are being paused — and why finishing someone else's story with care, integrity, and excellence matters more right now.

This episode isn't a performance.
It's an honest conversation about faith, pain, growth, and what kindness actually looks like in real life.

If something stands out to you, I'd love to hear it. Please leave a comment or 'thumbs up'.
Visible Kindness grows through conversation, not noise.

In this episode, Ed Squire talks with Amanda Johnson — The Story Oracle, about how storytelling can become a powerful act of kindness and healing.

Amanda alchemizes 25 years of experience in story literacy, writing, and narrative medicine to help people transform their backstories into something redemptive and life-giving. Together they discuss:

• Why writing your story unlocks hidden emotions and purpose

• The surprising connection between kindness and vulnerability

• What happens when you finally let others "hold" your story with you

This conversation will inspire you to look at your own story — not as something to hide, but as something to heal through and share.

Don't Talk About It?? — Why We Must Speak Up About CSA, with Gloria Masters

In this powerful and emotionally charged episode of The Visible Kindness Podcast, host Ed Squire welcomes international survivor advocate Gloria Masters — a woman whose story has reached millions and is still breaking silence today.

Born into sex trafficking and raised in a cycle of abuse in New Zealand, Gloria not only survived 16 years of horror, she rose with purpose. Today, she's a published author, speaker, and the founder of Handing the Shame Back, a global foundation for adult survivors of child sexual abuse (CSA).

📍 Note: This interview was recorded shortly after the COVID-19 pandemic. Its message is as vital now as ever.

We talked about:

• Why silence protects abusers — and how to break it

• Gloria's survival journey and the power of the human spirit

• The global reach of her advocacy and campaigns

• The #Handsign4Kids and Global Awareness Day initiatives

• How love and humility anchor her life and mission

🎙 Resources Mentioned:

• Gloria's Website & Books: https://www.gloriamasters.com

• Handing the Shame Back Foundation: https://www.handingtheshameback.org

🔔 If you or someone you love is a survivor, please listen. Share this episode. You are not alone.
