Welcome to FREE-BIRD, a compelling podcast, video series, and interview platform by One Love Community Care (OLCC). Our mission is to shed light on the uncharted territories of mental health challenges, neurodivergence, pain management, transgenerational trauma, relationship dynamics, cultural, societal, and environmental influences, and substance abuse. We’re here to share your stories and celebrate your journey towards healing, recovery, and living with purpose.
This shift has the potential to unlock untapped human potential and foster a society that values and supports the diverse ways we learn and grow.
Why FREE-BIRD?
At FREE-BIRD, we believe that real-life stories are the most powerful catalysts for change. Your experiences can inspire, educate, and uplift others navigating similar paths. We know that discussing topics like mental health, disability, surviving abuse, and addiction can be daunting, but we believe in the transformative power of these conversations. By opening dialogues and sharing experiences, we aim to break the stigma, empower communities, and create sustainable connections and solutions for future generations. Also, we believe that the unique experiences of neurodivergent individuals are like a cognitive kaleidoscope, offering diverse ways of learning about themselves personally and socially. This vibrant spectrum of neurological diversity has the transformative power to reshape our environments and education systems, challenging traditional narratives and exploring new knowledge structures.
