In this week’s episode of A Thought I Kept, storyteller and creative leader Andrea Rathborne shares a memory so vivid, it feels like a short film stitched into the fabric of her life. This experience taught Andrea to appreciate the everyday small but meaningful moments, which she likens to a series of dashes and dots, forming a personal Morse code of memories.
Host Claire Fitzsimmons talks with Andrea about what it means to notice deeply, to be changed by presence, and to hold onto the moments that quietly shape us — the ones we shelve in our own inner library, ready to return to when we need them most.
Together Claire and Andrea explore how her project Half Betty is creating space for midlife women to be seen, heard, and celebrated. We discuss the importance of intergenerational wisdom, and the power of sharing our stories.
This episode emphasizes the need to notice and cherish the beauty, joy, and even the sorrows in life, encouraging listeners to find connection in the everyday.
