About this podcast

Discovering Our Scars

Stephanie Kostopoulos & Beth Demme

Discovering Our Scars Podcast is all about one thing: honest conversations. Steph and Beth talk about things that make most people uncomfortable (religion, mental illness, sexual abuse, and more). Steph and Beth became friends when they poured their hearts out in a 12-Step recovery small group. Neither was dealing with addiction—but both had hurts, habits, and hang-ups they needed to address. Steph’s journey is detailed in her book, Discovering My Scars, and that’s the inspiration for the podcast. While the podcast is inspired by Steph’s book, the hosts expand on subjects that make each person unique. The mission of the podcast is to help people embrace the “embarrassing” parts of their lives and learn to love and value all of themselves. On the podcast, the hosts share their own experiences and invite guests to broaden the conversation by contributing their own wisdom. As in Steph’s book, the podcast does not “tell you what to do,” rather, it has the ability to inspire people through the hosts’ honest and heartfelt approach.Podcast website: dospod.us

Reflecting on the Year: A Candid Chat with Steph and Beth

“Rather than making a New Year’s resolution, Steph and Beth invite you to take time for a New Year reflection.”

What if instead of making a New Year’s resolution, you took a moment to reflect on the past year? In this episode of 'Discovering Our Scars', hosts Stephanie Kostopoulos and Beth Demme invite you to do just that. Rather than ending with the usual 'Questions for Reflection', the entire episode is dedicated to them. Steph and Beth take turns answering questions about their experiences over the last year and their hopes for the future.

They even include 30-second pauses between questions, giving you a chance to ponder your own answers (or hit the skip button if you're in a rush). From discussing personal struggles to sharing moments of joy, this episode is packed with heartfelt stories and genuine insights. Steph and Beth touch on topics like travel, self-improvement, mental health, and the importance of family and relationships. Their candid conversation aims to inspire listeners to embrace reflection as a tool for growth and positivity.

If you’re looking for a thoughtful way to kick off the new year, this episode offers plenty of inspiration.
