THIS WEEK ON THE BELOVED COMMUNITY BREAKDOWN!
What do we do when the agreements breakdown?
Life doesn’t always go the way we expect. Sometimes we can train, prepare, and still the breakdown in communication and community is a sign of needs to be addressed. Shirley and Rachel offer their thoughts on rupture and repair!

Come back next week for the final part of this series!

It’s the little and big actions in eco-sustainability that are manageable and make you feel great!
