What if healing meant going back—way back—to your childhood home in 1978? In this unforgettable episode, award-winning author Amy Weinland Daughters takes us on a heartwarming, hilarious, and unexpectedly healing time-travel journey inspired by her memoir You Cannot Mess This Up: A True Story That Never Happened.
Through vivid scenes of Thanksgiving dinner, Atari games, and the Sears Catalog, Amy explores what happens when you meet your 10-year-old self face-to-face. From awkward bowl cuts to quiet moments of grace, this story isn’t just about nostalgia—it’s about rewriting the narrative of your past to better understand your present.
We dive into:
What life looked like before smartphones, social media, and Google
How childhood memories hold the key to emotional healing
The unexpected power of reconnecting with your younger self
The role of faith, family dynamics, and unspoken truths in shaping who we become
Whether you're craving a flashback to the ‘70s or searching for ways to make peace with your past, this episode is a powerful reminder that your story—no matter how ordinary—matters.
🎧 Tune in, grab your spiral notebook (and maybe your Jordache jeans), and join us for a time-traveling conversation you didn’t see coming.
