Hey, friend.

Last week I asked you where you get stuck when it comes to showing up for social justice. I so very much appreciated your lovely, vulnerable, and generous responses.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

But I heard one thing so much: loneliness.

So many of you are feeling alone in your caring.

You're the only one in your family. In your small town. In your community. In your household, friend group, workplace.

I feel that. I've been that.

And I still am, depending on where I am.

But that's why I've made it a point to fill my upcoming Virtual Conference with opportunities for Attendees to get in touch with others just like them.

We'll be having a Coffee Chat each morning where you can check in before getting started.

There's going to be a Speed-Friending event designed to help you find your Conference Accountability Buddy (or Buddies!) so you don't have to be on your own during the week.

I've scheduled a couple of CoWorking sessions where you can come to share quiet space with other Attendees engaging with the interviews, reflecting in their workbooks, or doing everyday life stuff they need some company getting done. (There's even going to be a breakout room if you want to chat out loud.)

And for folks who want more fun-fun, we've got Karaoke!!! Hosted by awesome Drag King Fatty Gemini.

You are never truly alone in this work. So many other people care just as passionately as you do, you just have to find them... And I'm taking a lot of the heavy lifting out of that endeavor for you.

You've just got to register... and then show up. You just might find the supportive group of folks you've been looking for!

Will I see you there?
