December 2020
We end this year with a project focused on having the humility to look inwards, recognize our setbacks, learn from them and change them. What are the thoughts, opinions and everyday behaviours we have that are not self-serving and how does that impact the world we live in?
To say the least, many things have happened to us this year and have forced our minds and bodies into new ways of being that we have not experienced before. We have been constantly reacting to significant events around us and no doubt have felt confusion, frustration and exhaustion from the constant influx of change and new information. Whilst all of this can be overwhelming in our dynamic environments, the one thing we can control is our state of mind and how we choose to behave.
This project explores some key themes highlighted this year as a result of the global pandemic. Our storytellers unpack the layers in topics such as mental health, power and privilege and climate change. In the unpacking of these complex topics, we also explore common attitudes and actions that can be challenged to promote a more conscientious self and in turn, promote a more connected and ethically responsible community.
More and more, we would like to encourage readers to look at the things that we didn’t do so well and find a way to change them. We know this is not only possible but necessary so that mistakes are not repeated and our only way forward is up.
Wishing you all a happy new year and a brighter 2021 ahead.
