Mariana Furlin has the best front porch in Macon. Really. She embodies the spirit of a porch - welcoming, gracious, a breath of fresh air, weathered and ready for more. In fact, we've included a picture of her porch in our show notes - a place where many shoes have been kicked off and tears have been shed. Today we have a single story from our September 26th event embracing the theme of “Macon Magic.” The story we have for you is Mariana’s journey to embracing sisterhood, told while weaving in the voices of other women who have loved her along the way.

The Heartbeat of Georgia is hosted by Koryn Young and Julia Rubens and episodes are produced by Storytellers Macon based off of the limited stage series in partnership with The Grand Opera House.
