“Beyond the Veil” Episode 15: “Finding Your True Self”

by Madison Ford · June 17, 2019

No matter what age you are when you discover the Harry Potter series, it has the potential to create huge ripples of change in your life. This week, we spoke with Josh Cook about how the Potter books opened up his world and helped him rediscover himself. You can listen to this episode down below or on our podcast page.

 

 

On Episode 15, we discuss…

→ Growing up “normal,” almost Dursley-ish

→ Not being allowed to read the Potter books growing up

→ Feeling dissatisfied with Dumbledore after watching the movies

→ The magic of audiobooks

→ Opening up your world with Remus Lupin, Kreacher, and more

→ Relating to Tonks, being a chameleon, and learning to be yourself

→ This week’s Whisper: some thoughts on bravery
