Kristin Swoszowski-Tran, one of our Producer Partners in Mora, NM, presented a talk last week at Santa Fe's Creative Mornings, featuring creative resilience after the Calf Canyon fires. We especially enjoyed hearing her talk about building partnerships/relationships in a way that really resonates with the conversations we have been having as a team! Her speech starts at the 23:15 minute mark.
