Picture this: a dinner table conversation surrounded by Lisa's foster family, discussing the unlikely question of what fruit each person would be. Amidst the predictable answers, Lisa's foster sister stunned her by declaring, "You're a pomegranate."

In this episode of “Perspectives from a Pomegranate,” host Lisa Brooks shares the intriguing connection between this podcast and the enigmatic pomegranate.

Initially resistant to the idea of being a pomegranate (“I’m not an effing pomegranate!”), Lisa woke up one day and realized that pomegranate fit her to a T, resonating on a profound level. With countless layers, hidden depths, and an unconventional nature, Lisa, like a pomegranate, is filled with surprises and intricacies. Thus “Perspectives from a Pomegranate” came to be from Lisa’s pomegranate-like existence, with stories unfolding in non-linear fragments, just like the seeds within the fruit.
