The writers behind this newsletter.
In the Stories of the Commons we hope to lift up stories of the commons by ordinary people who are doing extraordinary things. Read, Listen in, Share!
I believe in a world where everyone is free & equal. A human rights activist within the LGBTQ+ community, I am a person of faith who lives into hope. I am at home in nature, hiking mountains and being at the sea. Peace.
I find courage in the beautiful life I am living. I find courage in my family, my friends, the work of my heart. I love reading, exploring, being outside. I find beauty in the little things and getting quiet enough to experience them.
