In late 2022, I signed up for the School of System Change’s 33days systemic reflections - an invitation to start 2023 with 33 days of reflection guided by one question / prompt each day that the school shared. Thanks again for the Louise, Anna and Sean from the School for allowing me to use this. Stay tuned for version two probably coming late 2023, for a reflective start to 2024!
