In 2009, Ayanna was walking through Tokyo, without an umbrella, when it started to rain. Then a stranger appeared by her side.
Do you have your own story of an unsung hero? We'd love to hear it! Record a voice memo and email it to us at myunsunghero@hiddenbrain.org.
Some guidance:
-- Focus on ONE moment that you will never forget.
-- Make sure you're in a quiet, non-echoey room.
-- Speak conversationally, like you're talking to a friend (and please avoid reading from notes.)
-- Let us know how this person continues to impact your life.
-- If your hero were standing front of you today, what would you say? Address them directly.
-- Here are some tips on how to make a great recording on your phone.
Thank you!
