Thinking about a woman who made the world more colorful, & the darkness we cannot see, & every person who is both vibrant & fragile & a thousand other things. We’ve said it before. No doubt we’ll say it again: You are not alone. https://t.co/QQ1PUvzekC via @CrisisTextLine

Today in CMX Pro I get to interview two incredible community strategists, @lennonflowers and @Carlafernandez, Founders of @dinnerpartiers.

They've built an international community of people who experienced loss, and come together over potluck dinners.

Incredible story. Pumped.
