About This Podcast

🎙️ My Story Isn’t Unusual. That’s the Problem.
This podcast speaks truth to power from the inside out. Hosted by Matthew — care-experienced, adopted, and fiercely determined — each episode dives into the personal fallout of life in and after care: missing records, trauma, silence, and the fight for systemic reform.
You’ll also hear from special guests representing charities supported by One Set Of Footprints CIC, including:
- 🧒 Team Mikayla, raising awareness and wishing gifts up to value of £500.00
- 💬 Andy’s Man Club, breaking the stigma around men’s mental health
We shine a spotlight on community action too — including the incredible work of Argyle Community Trust. From baby sensory sessions to inclusive local events, we celebrate grassroots change where it’s happening.
This isn’t just storytelling. It’s accountability. Activism. Connection.
