Cauldron Month has come again! August is the month in which I make space to steep, taking a break from public-facing work (including social media other than pre-scheduled post). I’m offering a free Space to Steep series in our weekly newsletter on Sundays through August.
- More about Cauldron Month is available here.
- And, community practice is available here.
