June 2020, I received a voicemail and email, in 100% Lithuanian, from a Lithuanian journalist asking me to share the story of Amber Auksas. No longer than 24 hours later, I had the honor and privilege of sharing the heart of Amber Auksas on an international level by journalist AgnΔ KairiΕ«naitΔ of LRT (Lithuania's Radio & Television Network - essentially Lithuanian NPR or PBS). You can listen to the interview below! **Please note, my spoken Lithuanian is a little rusty, so bear with me!
This was unexpected, unsolicited and unplanned for in every way possible. So, I'm super awkward and nervous, but I'm beyond humbled that local media would take interest in Bracelets for Ukraine. Aired on 2 different networks in San Antonio.
