In the premier episode of The Unfolding: Presented by The Loveland Foundation,  Miriam Starobin, the Social Media and Programming Manager for The Loveland Foundation interviews Tianna Madison, an American track and field athlete.  Miriam and Tianna navigate the waters of burnout, boundaries, and perfectionism truthfully and with sincerity. Offering up parts of themselves as tribute to the larger motif— community, healing, and validation.

The Unfolding: Presented by The Loveland Foundation podcast is here to embrace the tough conversations and offer a new healing modality through vulnerability, honesty, and reciprocity. When we unfold we are committing to an exercise in compassion. Unfolding is language turned into behavior, an energetic exchange, through conversation, which supports you walking towards yourself.  

This episode covers many topics but we specifically want to point out that towards the end of the episode Tianna and Miriam do discuss briefly the topic of Sexual Assault.  If this topic is particularly triggering please skip over it.
