Unseen Atlanta
Unseen Atlanta, an Atlanta Mission Podcast, shines a light on the untold stories of those who have experienced homelessness, revealing the hidden realities of this struggle and inspiring listeners to see hope, resilience, and the possibilities for change in Atlanta and beyond.
Hosted by Rachel Reynolds and Jonathan Miller, each episode tells the real-life story of a journey through hardships like housing insecurity, hunger, trauma, and addiction. Each episode also features a subject matter expert — like a neuroscientist or a shelter director — to further contextualize the subject.
Join us to see the unseen stories behind homelessness in Atlanta.
Unseen Atlanta
I was ashamed of the impression that I had built in my head.
In this episode, Kathy Rainwater-Roe, Director of Community Partnerships at Phoenix Senior Living, shares how her first volunteer experience with Atlanta Mission dismantled her assumptions about homelessness and revealed the dignity and gratitude of the women she met.
After that paradigm shift, Kathy has worked hard to bring Phoenix from serving meals during the holidays to investing in the whole person by becoming one of Atlanta Mission’s employment partners. In this conversation, Kathy unpacks the surprising parallels between senior care and homelessness, the transformational impact of second chances, and why changing perceptions is key to changing lives.
If you’ve ever wondered whether one person, or one employer, can really make a difference, Kathy’s story will inspire you to see a new perspective.
