Special Episode 14: Will and Kayli

Written By Susie Gurley

I am so excited to bring you this special edition of the Just A Mom podcast.  “The Brightest It’s Ever Been” is a play written by Kayli Slayden about living with anxiety.  It is based on Kayli’s personal experience with anxiety and is being directed and produced by my son, Will. Like the Just A Mom podcast, Kayli hopes that by sharing her story through the medium of a play people will know that they are not alone and there is hope.  The play is also a great way for those who have not struggled with anxiety to perhaps gain a new understanding of what it’s like to live with anxiety or other mental illnesses.  


If you are in the Kansas City area, I highly encourage you to come see The Brightest It’s Ever Been on December 28, 29, or 30 at Hillcrest Covenant Church, 8801 Nall Ave., Prairie Village, KS. 66207. You can reserve seats here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-brightest-its-ever-been-tickets-482084095507.  You can also follow the play on Facebook or Instagram at the Brightest Play.
