Thank you so much for reading and the kind words. You're so right, we all have this superpower. I love how easy it is to spread the ripples of encouragement
It is so hard, isn't it ... we're hard wired to metrics, and feedback, the endorphin rush of likes and the reassurance of knowing our stuff has 'hit the mark'. But learning to lighten the load on ourselves must find a payback in the ways we enter our creative practices.
I hope also by encouraging people to share the things they like by the people they admire, loads will be shared and some of the heavy lifting is taken off the shoulders of those who are weighed down by it, if that makes sense.
I absolutely love this - thank you 🙏
Thank you so much, Emma … I have NO idea how I missed this back in November!
The most wondrous and powerful "small action, big impact" is to hold somebody's hand.
There was a wonderful piece I read yesterday by Cole Haddon about just this!
Great, thanks!

Aw, Priya, that is such an uplifting thing to say. Thank you. We’re so happy that it is gently catching on in this space that we love so much.
The specific suggestions are great. A reminder of how we are probably already doing it, and how simple it can be to do it more.
