  Ep. 8 | SERIES FINALE: Better Together

  May 1, 202641 min

  Community doesn’t just happen — it’s built through resilience, shared struggle, and the small, everyday acts of showing up for one another. In this final episode of This Is The Refuge, we look closely at the rising challenges facing our neighbors, from housing instability to food insecurity, and the people working tirelessly to respond with dignity and compassion. You’ll hear from leaders across Broomfield who are meeting these needs head-on through creative partnerships, practical support, and a commitment to belonging that refuses to give up on anyone. Their stories remind us that hope isn’t abstract. It’s lived. It’s practiced. And it grows when we choose to be part of the solution. We are so much better together. Wherever you are in your own journey, this episode invites you to step into the work of community — to listen, to learn, and to discover how your presence can make a real impact.

  Episode 6 | TRANSFORMATION: We're all growing and practicing together

  Apr 13, 202629 minS0

  <p>Transformation doesn’t always look dramatic — sometimes it’s slow, quiet, and shaped by the people who stay. In this episode, Dr. Decibel sits with Christina Price and Amber Lane, two longtime members of the Refuge whose lives have been marked by loss, rebuilding, and the steady work of becoming new. They talk about mental health, faith shifts, single parenthood, boundaries, community, and the courage it takes to keep showing up even when progress feels small.
