The Taoist Corner Podcast The Taoist Corner Podcast

Welcome to another episode of The Taoist Corner Podcast. Today, rather than continue our work through 365 Tao by Ding Ming-Dao, I’ll interview writer Heidi Pyper, who recently won The Taoist Online’s holiday writing contest!
Heidi Pyper's storytelling not only paints vivid pictures with words, but it also knits the very fabric of her being into each narrative. As this episode unfolds, she takes us on a deeply personal voyage, exploring the memories of her late father and the indelible impact of his surprise theatrical foray. Winner of the Taoist Online holiday writing contest, Heidi's voice is a mix of nostalgia and wonder as she reflects on the complexities of her writing journey. We navigate writers' often surprising decision-making process, examining how Medium has shaped her as a storyteller and the importance of choosing which memories to embrace and which to let flutter away like leaves in the wind.
You can read her touching and heart-warming winning story below.
