Shownotes Transcript

Yrsa is of mixed West Indian and West African heritage. Born to a Jamaican mother and a Nigerian father, Yrsa was raised by her devout Seventh Day Adventist grandparents in the small town of Chorley in the North of England. She is a writer and poet, whose words drip off of your lips.

In this episode we talk about what it means to let go of old narratives and the importance of interpreting the terrible events in our lives as beautiful texture of our stories.
