    The Sustained Act—Finding Heroism in the Everyday

    Welcome to Shero, the podcast dedicated to celebrating the women who change the world, one courageous act at a time. I'm your host, Jen, and when we think of a hero, we often picture the cape, the flash of light, the single, glorious moment of salvation. But what happens the day after the disaster? What about the strength it takes to show up, day in and day out, for a fight that never ends? Today, we’re challenging the myth of the momentary hero to explore a deeper, more enduring kind of courage: The sustained act of heroism.

    Family Members That I Saw as My Heroes & Sheroes Growing Up

    Some of what I’m going to talk about might be triggering for you if you have experienced family drama, sexual abuse, or difficult times in your family. When I was growing up I always thought of my parents and brother when I thought of who were heroes or mentors in my life. I thought of them because they were and continue to be so supportive of me with the challenges I have faced in my life especially the NLD, migraine, and traumatic related ones.

    “The Playpen Rescue”

    In this heartwarming story, 29-year-old Jennifer saves her dad from a dangerous fall while he’s hanging a picture over the stairs. As he slips, Jennifer quickly drags over a soft puppy playpen—meant for their two dogs, Snickers and Sassy Pants—and manages to catch him just in time. Calm and focused, she checks on him, gently moves the puppies out of the way, and then helps him up, turning a near-disaster into a moment of unexpected heroism and love—all thanks to quick thinking and a dog pen not exactly designed for dads.
