This episode is a celebration — Becoming Sound is officially one year old! 🥳

Over the past year, this podcast has been a space for growth, healing, and connection through raw conversations and powerful stories. In this special anniversary episode, host Krista Zaft sits down with her friend Shannon to reflect on the lessons learned, the importance of vulnerability, and the life-changing impact of sharing our stories in community.

Together, they talk about what it takes to keep showing up, even when fear and doubt whisper otherwise, and how podcasting has become a form of therapy and empowerment. Krista also shares her vision for the next season of Becoming Sound — bringing in even more diverse voices and continuing to highlight the transformative power of storytelling, not just through trauma, but through inspiration, hope, and possibility.
