nonprofit organization. Sanderson takes over from Richard Wilmore, who started the podcast in 2020 and served as producer and co-host with Catherine Particini.
“She has done so much in the arts and health world, in her own life and in her own capabilities with her music and with her writing,” he said, praising her intelligence and sense of humor. “It’s going to be a natural progression.”Sanderson said the opportunity arrived as the result of prayer and telling God “I want to use my heart for healing.”
“Isolation is a scary reality,” she said, drawing a parallel between being in prison and being in a hospital. “You’re alone, you can’t leave,” and patients are in need of ways to express their fears, anxieties and hopes. “It’s for creatives, but I also think it’s for individuals who want to seek healing” in any part of their lives, Sanderson said. One feature of the podcast is demonstration moments, like Sanderson’s writing prompt during her guest spot when listeners could respond through a live chat.
