"Facilitation is triage now" -NB

What does it mean to lead group spaces in a world that feels increasingly raw, volatile, and grief-saturated?

Melissa and Narinder sit down as artists, death workers and teachers to talk about how the role of the facilitator is changing, and why many space-holders are feeling exhausted and under impossible pressure.

This episode is for anyone who holds space for others: teachers, grief workers, artists, coaches, therapists, facilitors and community organizers and leaders.

Each month, readers receive art in the mail: postcard prints, drawings, and writing that’s cooked up in the studio that month. A tactile antidote to the algorithm. Go slow, touch paper.
