About the event
From the natural world to pop culture, political science, and religious traditions, our world is rife with examples of interconnectedness, reciprocity, and mutual aid. We’ll explore together why these lessons are crucial for this particular moment and consider how to apply them in our own lives and relationships.

She strives in each role to witness and give voice to the sacredness of all stories, and the beauty and wholeness in each person. A queer, Jewish, able-bodied, cisgender white woman, Mandie lives just outside of Chicago with her two partners, three teenagers, and two (periodically) delightful dogs.
