We are the experts of our lived experiences. Yet, we can get too comfortable in our routines, making it harder to embrace what’s not an everyday occurrence – meaningful conversations. Breaking the Surface looks past the small talk to reveal our truths through the narratives of everyday people.

    Ep 6 - Former Athletes: What was it like to transition out of sports

    For many of us, sports played an essential role growing up whether it was teaching us how to overcome failure, how to make friends, or simply how to manage our time. But like all athletes, even professionals, there comes a time where we must figure out how to transition out of being an athlete. Today’s guest fits under the descriptions I just mentioned. Becca was an avid ice skater who spent most of her waking hours thinking about ice. But there came a day where Becca had to figure out what life was going to be like without always being at the ice skating rink. (EDIT: Becca was on Team USA, but did not go to the Olympics)

    Ep 5 - What is the best advice you ever received from a teacher?

    Education, It’s something that many of us have experienced for 13 years of more. So it shouldn’t be surprising that much of what we know is from school. And I’m not just talking academics. Life lessons and advice come from the people we interact with in school, especially teachers. Which brings us to the question, “What is the best advice you ever received from a teacher?” Our guest, Chloe, received a life lesson during a Senior year English class that would change how she saw her past and her future. Take a listen to her story.

    Ep. 2 - What religion/spirituality do you follow? What was your journey to accepting it?

For others, religion has been an area full of questions and uncertainty. In this episode, we hear from a young man who struggled to accept his family's religion for years before accepting it.
