In the last year (or two?) we’ve hunkered down, faced fears, and reclaimed an empowered sense of what matters most. We’ve explored fun [material] topics and showcased content creators contributing to progressive shifts within our societal construct (including homelessness, women’s rights, and climate change).

All of which has fortified my belief that there is power in substantive storytelling.

Until Next Year,

Cheers
