151: Words Woke Me - Steve’s Journey To Recovery Through Poetry

151: Words Woke Me - Steve’s Journey To Recovery Through Poetry

In this episode of The Penis Project Podcast, I chat with Steve Jones, a name that might ring a bell for our dedicated listeners. Steve's life took a unique turn when he lost his prostate, but in turn discovered a remarkable talent for expressing his story through poetry.

His poetry delves into various aspects of his recovery, from overcoming loneliness and exploring intimacy to empowerment and appreciating life.

Steve has recently published a collection of his poetry in a book called "Words Woke Me," a beautiful glimpse into his personal journey.

Listen in as Steve shares a few of his poems and discusses his commitment to supporting men to feel less isolated when faced with the challenges of prostate cancer.
