Street Sense Says Episode 7: Time, tide, and the ride of life

People say “time and tide wait for none” and nudge us to make the most of our time and the trials or treasures we experience on our way. Jet Flegette keeps perspective, even when facing trauma: valuing people (and pets) over things, staying joyous and curious in the world, and remaining compassionate in sight of struggle. She talks about navigating grief, exploring trust, and exercising empathy – all of which help her tell stories that prompt people to better see and support each other. Given the chance to relive the toughest times, Jet says she’d do it all again and challenges us to ask ourselves what it means to fully feel and deeply participate in our lives.
