What began as a simple school PTO project quickly became a powerful movement rooted in dignity, choice, and generosity. Sepi shares how Holiday House empowers children — many living at or below the poverty line — to shop for their own loved ones, free of charge, and experience the pride of being the giver. From sneaker drives and paid-off lunch debt to winter wonderlands built inside classrooms, this episode is a reminder that the most meaningful gifts aren’t things — they’re moments of being seen, valued, and believed in.","meta_description":"In this heartfelt and joy-filled holiday episode, Jaime and Stan sit down with Sepi Ackerman, nonprofit founder and community champion behind Holiday Hous…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":2332,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/what-s-your-story-with-jaime-stan-7110537/episodes/what-s-your-story-sepi-ackerman-creating-holiday-magic-by-letting-kids-become-the-givers/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/what-s-your-story-with-jaime-stan-7110537/what-s-your-story-sepi-ackerman-creating-holiday-magic-by-letting-kids-become-the-givers.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
