After finding herself on stage during an expanded state of consciousness, April storyteller Mary Hoefler decided that it was about time to get writing and start talking. She found herself on the Moth stage for the first time in July of ’23 and never looked back. A five-time StorySlam winner, Mary has also been showing up at all sorts of local venues including OUTspoken, Louder Than a Mom, This Much is True, First Person Live, Do Not Submit and Tellers’ Night. Although storytelling is her passion, it doesn’t pay the bills, so Mary spends her days as a psychotherapist, encouraging clients to get loud and share their own stories without any edits…because why edit who we are, right?!! Hear Mary’s story Tuesday, April 1, at OUTspoken at Sidetrack 7-9pm, seating from 6pm.
