Through truth-telling: the honest sharing of their experiences, storytellers teach us about themselves, enabling us to learn about ourselves and our world through their stories. By reconnecting with pivotal moments of activation in their lives, they invite us to do the same. At Social Justice Origin Stories, we believe that there's power in storytelling and that lived experience is experience. There's room enough for all of us to do this work. There are many ways to contribute, and our contributions don't need to be the same. We can enter and remain engaged in the work using the gifts that are special to us while supporting others and using theirs. We have the capacity to grow and change for the better when exposed to new information and experiences. We believe in our inherent worth and capabilities, and we possess the power to inspire and create change in ourselves and others. We can transcend the confines of the status quo to imagine and design more equitable and humanizing systems.…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-23T00:17:42.007041+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/social-justice-origin-stories-7031511"},"episode":{"title":"Rejecting The Path Of Least Resistance and Refusing To Be A Passenger With Tyler Adams","slug":"rejecting-the-path-of-least-resistance-and-refusing-to-be-a-passenger-with-tyler-adams","published_at":"2026-07-08T13:35:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/social-justice-origin-stories-7031511/rejecting-the-path-of-least-resistance-and-refusing-to-be-a-passenger-with-tyler-adams","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/social-justice-origin-stories-7031511","url":"https://socialjusticeoriginstories.com/","audio_url":"https://media.zencast.fm/social-justice-origin-stories/bbbf1d22-d8a8-46d2-b41a-30de03cb4380.wav?source=feed","summary":"Tyler Adams of the GoodPain Podcast opens up about how a life-altering event involving his youngest daughter cracked his heart open and expanded his understanding of privilege, complicity with oppressive systems, and what it really means to live in alignment with his values, including using storytelling to make heart-to-heart connections that create lasting change. He shares his experiences with the complexities of navigating loss, confronting privilege, subverting the status quo, and the power of staying connected to our humanity. Tyler encourages listeners to resist the \"path of least resistance,\" refuse to be passive participants, and to remember the importance of collective action and accountability on the journey toward justice.
