Building community. It's one of the most important and old-fashioned skills we can develop in our modern era. Yet, sometimes it's easier said than done. I'm joined by Christine Marie Bailey today. She's the author of The Kindred Life and a passionate advocate for building community, no matter where you live. In this episode, she shares some of her best practical strategies for working through the common roadblock to creating connection.
