​CBC PTSD Documentary

‘How did they come upon me and my story?” Was all that kept going through my mind as I answered their email. CBC was reaching out inquiring if I would be a part of a documentary series, You Can’t Ask That. The series having a unique and candid feel to which each participant answers questions regarding what makes them individual. The first season having only focused on the physical aspect, from an autism episode, to limb differences, however, this new season was going to include mental health episodes. Of course there was no way such an important message of inclusion and another means to share could be answered with anything but a giant YES. With Terrance and I having met through these similar lived experiences, practises of routine and lessons, it was decided to bring both of us to answer questions together on the viewpoint of a partnership while overcoming each of our individual live journeys. The questions opened up a great dialog between the crew, producer and us, having laughter, fighting back tears and creating a powerful afternoon for all within the studio. “Once you start recognizing the truth of your story, finish the story. It happened but you're still here, you're still capable, powerful, you're not your circumstance. It happened and you made it through. You're still fully equipped with every single tool you need to fulfill your purpose.” #stevemaraboli
