Grateful for such an energising week at this point in the year, from prototyping a new Share + Learn ritual to exploring caring futures @yardarthouse with @cvoza_, exchanging tokens of gratitude as a team + more. Looking forward to spreading more love at @__TheFrontRoom tomorrow.

A trauma mindset will convince you that everything will collapse if you’re still, if you rest, or if you do something just for you.

It’s not true. Let some ease into your day, into your breath, into your life.

[safiya @saffmaccc]

excited for this ✨

[Kate Raworth @KateRaworth]

The brilliant team @CIVIC_SQUARE bringing Doughnut Economics to life in their neighbourhood. What a cool crew. Can't wait to learn with and from them.

Musilm Girls Fence loves this project, BALM, by @cvoza_

Chatting to Cynthia about our work around care & wellbeing has been so valuable, & with our podcast Re-Imagining Care releasing next week, its been so great to connect.
Have a look at this incredible work!

https://t.co/8E7KohLttY - what a beautiful site curated by @cvoza_ that oozes with love & care, all centred around the well-being of Black folk in #Lewisham (+ beyond!). @STWevents might be of interest to some of the communities you work with? ✊🏾💛
