In this rich and resonant episode, Lee Currie sits down with Pat Sanagan — nurse, mother, grandmother, and lifelong advocate — for a candid conversation about the evolving nature of visibility, introversion, parenting, and power as we age. From navigating family dynamics to letting go of the need to please, Pat shares what it means to lead with compassion, tell the truth with grace, and raise a family (and a life) grounded in presence. This one’s for anyone learning to honour their energy, stand tall in their values, and pass on wisdom without losing themselves in the process.KEY TOPICS COVEREDVisibility and introversion as we ageFeminism and faith: exiting institutions that silence womenParenting four kids with presence and purposeAdvocating without apologyGrandparenting: wonder and restraintMusic, memory, and multigenerational connectionLetting go of people pleasingLearning when to stay and when to step backAfter you listen to this episode, answer this: What does visibility look like for you now?
