VOICES Radio Hour
VOICES Radio Hour airs from 6-7 p.m. on the second Friday of each month
VOICES Radio Hour is presented by VOICES in collaboration with Circa 71 Productions. This series is part of VOICES’ latest project in response to our intrinsic need to share stories, coupled with Circa 71 Productions’ mission to preserve memories and stories as the sacred archeology of our loved ones. The collaboration will bring about collected stories under different themes and voices from all walks of our community in the monthly VOICES Radio Hour. We hope this serves to preserve our oral history of who we are, where we come from, and who we aspire to be, through the tradition of storytelling.

This month, we asked sober members of our community to share how they got to where they are now - living clear in the high country. With humor, grace, and humility these women share what made them put down the bottle, face their demons, and emerge out the other side as their true selves. -
Love is in the air! This month, we celebrate the enduring power of love to overcome any obstacle.

This month on VOICES Radio Hour, we hear from four new mothers with babies ranging from 7 weeks to 19 months old, and one expectant mother. They share about the wonder, overwhelm, and gratitude they’ve felt, their birth experiences, postpartum surprises, the ways in which their community has shown up for them, and their hopes for the future. Listen close to hear one of the sweet babies sharing their thoughts and feelings as well! Happy Mother’s Day from VOICES.

February is the month of Love, but we so often think about Love in black and white terms. You are in love or you are not. You have a love or you do not. But we know that Love comes in all colors, shapes, and forms, so we asked five community members who are single - in a traditional sense - about love, community, and family in their lives.
