  • Tompson (Colorado Springs, CO)
    2025/08/26

    For the 20th episode of UtU, I present the story of Tompson. He is living in Colorado, working through the traumas of growing up in an abusive household, being taken advantage of by those closest to him, and trying to be a good father to his baby girl. Tompson's interview was a long one, so I edited the best I could to make sure his truth is spoken clearly.

    Tompson has is working on his journey of being a personal assistant for life, helping people with budgeting, groceries, and other every day tasks. If you're interested in what he has to offer, you can email him at tompson.stanger.assisting@gmail.com. Thank you for listening!

  • Jill (Salt Lake City, UT)
    2025/04/22

    Jill and I discuss just how quickly homelessness can happen to anyone. She & her husband were both working, scrapping by day to day, and then the thing that has put so many people into homelesness, greed, reared it's ugly face.

    There is frustration but hope within Jill and if, after hearing her story you feel called to help directly, her Venmo handle is @Jill-SanJule. Thank you for your generosity!

  • Amanda (Hartford, CT)
    2025/03/05

    Here comes the story of Amanda, who had to leave home at a young age and has been struggling ever since. She's one of the working homeless, an even less discussed group of individuals who can't afford a place of their own, despite employment. Her struggles with family dynamics and mental health make for a more difficult situation, but she's determined to get out. Thank you for listening!

    If you'd like to contribute to Amanda directly, her Cash handle is $mndybsstt. Your empathy is appreciated!

    Here comes my in-person chat with Robin, a formerly homeless woman who is using her lived experience and skills in moderation to keep an eye on the r/Homeless subreddit! She sat down with me in her hometown of San Jose to discuss the years she was unhoused, how she managed to make it through that with her sanity intact, and how she ultimately got out. Thank you for the time you will give to listen to her story!
