Episode 21 – From Rock Bottom to Real Stories: Filmmaker Chad Tailor
In this powerful episode of The Finding Wendy Podcast, host Wendy Limbertie sits down with Toronto-based filmmaker, screenwriter, and educator Chad Tailor. Known for his emotionally charged and socially relevant films, Chad shares his deeply personal journey through addiction, healing, identity, and redemption—and how those experiences now fuel his creative work.
We talk about his breakout short films A Done Deal, Forgiveness in F Minor, Finesse, and the award-winning Memento Mori—as well as his passion for mentoring the next generation of storytellers at the Toronto Film School.
This is a story of survival, self-expression, and the transformative power of film. Don’t miss it.
