🎙 Episode 9 — The Loudest Silence What My Father’s Stories Never Said

He told stories the way other people breathed — loud, constant, necessary. At every table, his voice filled the silence before anyone else could. But growing up in the shadow of all that sound, I learned something else: how to listen for what wasn’t being said. This episode is about the kind of inheritance we don’t find in words — but in tone, in presence, in the pauses between. It’s about how a son learns to become a man… not by echoing what came before, but by finding the courage to be quiet — and still feel seen.

Just Be, Kevin MacKay

In this poetic and personal episode, a solitary figure sits beside a moonlit lake, searching not for answers — but for stillness. Told in first-person, I Too Am The Water is a meditation on breath, memory, and the quiet strength of letting go. Woven through the narrative is a moving original poem — By The Water’s Edge — which captures the exact moment a soul remembers its place in the flow of life.

This story is about presence, not perfection. It reminds us that surrender isn’t the end — it’s the beginning of something softer. Something truer. If you’ve ever felt caught between who you were and who you’re becoming, this episode is for you.

Let it meet you where you are — and carry you gently back home.
