After Campfire is a podcast for everyone with a connection to the Southampton Fresh Air Home (SFAH), a center for people with physical disabilities. When you are a person with a physical disability, there are a lot of misconceptions about who you are which can be tough sometimes. For all of us growing up, SFAH was the one place where nothing mattered. It doesn’t matter what your disability is, how you communicate with the world, or whether you need lots of help, or no help at all, the only thing that mattered was that you got to be real and talk honestly about who we truly are. This podcast provides honest conversations about who we are, what makes us tick, and give our perspectives on the world.

If you’ve been to SFAH within the past few years, you’d probably know these next guests of the ‘After Campfire’ podcast pretty well. Their lives have been permanently changed by their time at Southampton Fresh Air Home. Growing confidence within yourself and finding your own voice is something both the camper and staff member in this episode have experienced. We go through memory lane, discuss becoming comfortable in your own skin, and the importance of communication. I hope everyone listening feels just as motivated after this episode and puts more understanding into different perspectives both inside and outside of SFAH. Happy listening!

This episode features four people who've been good friends for over 10 years and we get the opportunity to have a very vulnerable and honest conversation after all attending the Southampton Fresh Air Home.
