Welcome to the inaugural episode of Changing the Narrative: The Invisible People Podcast! Join us as we kick off our series with an in-depth and heartfelt interview with Mark Horvath, the founder of Invisible People. In this premiere episode, Mark sits down with Alex Gasaway, the senior producer who has been creating compelling documentaries for Invisible People over the last five years. Alex and Mark delve into Mark's personal journey from experiencing homelessness to becoming a leading advocate for the homeless community. Mark shares his incredible story, filled with highs and lows, from his early days in broadcast and music to losing everything in the 2008 crash. He opens up about his struggles with addiction, his time living on the streets, and the pivotal moments that inspired him to create Invisible People. This episode is more than just an interview; it's a raw and unfiltered look at the realities of homelessness through the eyes of someone who has lived it. Mark's candid reflections and passionate storytelling offer viewers a unique perspective on the issues facing homeless individuals and the urgent need for empathy and action. Invisible People is dedicated to interviewing homeless people, stakeholders, champions, and those directly affected by homelessness. Future episodes will feature inspiring conversations with activists, policymakers, and everyday heroes working to make a difference. Don't miss this powerful debut episode that sets the stage for many more compelling stories to come. Tune in to understand, empathize, and be inspired to influence positive change.
