On this special episode of the TWLOHA Podcast, we’re celebrating 15 years of hope and help on the organization’s birthday—along with the upcoming release of our daily-use self-care app called The Hopeful! In the first half, founder Jamie Tworkowski discusses the movement’s unexpected inception and shares some of his favorite memories, and TWLOHA’s first-ever social media coordinator Chris Youngblood talks about managing an overflowing inbox and a Myspace account all those years ago from his T-Mobile Sidekick. And in the second half of the episode, you’ll hear from two current team members—Katie Mumper and Bianca Mujica—the real-life folks who respond to your comments and texts and DMs.
