Sum of Ages
Sum of Ages is a growing audio archive of human experience.
Each episode preserves one person’s voice - speaking in their own words about a lived experience that has shaped how they see the world. Across hundreds of topics, the project gathers stories of loss and happiness, failure and purpose, regret and resilience - without performance or expectation.
The long-term aim is simple and ambitious: to accumulate one million years of lived experience, creating a public library of real voices that can be returned to when guidance, recognition, or quiet company is needed.
Sum of Ages exists as a reminder that whatever we are carrying, someone else has carried something like it before - and chose to speak.
Sum of Ages
26 years of life, and ADDICTION, with Dee.
Dee, a 26-year-old from Chicago, shares how his story is a testament to the power of self-reflection and change. Despite excelling in school and earning a degree from the University of Notre Dame, Dee found himself at a crossroads, confronting his relationship with alcohol and marijuana. He realized that without addressing these vices, even a life that looked successful on the outside could unravel.
Dee’s honesty is magnetic, and you can hear and feel the peace he’s found through his journey of growth and self-discovery. For anyone curious about reevaluating their own habits or finding clarity, Dee’s story is both relatable and inspiring.
