Are you a somebody? AN ANybody? no, if you’re here, you’re a whobody.
a replica of the original “Whobodies” story from grandpa’s typewriter
The name “Whobody” is a personal homage to Kara’s storytelling grandfather, Carl Lee, who originally coined the term.
His most famous story titled, “Whobodies,” is all about making people feel seen - which is what he was best at doing. He was a university pastor, psychology teacher, and counselor. He saved countless lives and relationships by living out his philosophy as a Whobody, stories of which are still being revealed each time we meet someone new who was touched by him.
This story is about letting people know they’re not alone and that they’re worthy. It’s a reminder that you’re never a nobody. It communicates that everybody has a story that deserves to be listened to and heard.
The story
Grandpa Carl’s original 1950’s Smith Corona typewriter. He passed away with this sermon in the works. This is how it still looks today.
On his typewriter, the “o’s” never quite aligned. We brought that into our branding to keep his legacy as it was left.
