As a continuation of our conversation about lessons learned from the pandemic, we wanted to explore how creativity played a role in our lives, our work, and broadly, for people as a means to find emotional outlets and process the unforeseen changes in our collective lives. It was marvellous to watch people dive into their creative sides, but also come together as a community in times of care, because they were connecting with themselves in times of isolation. #pandemic #creativity #communitycare https://lnkd.in/giGhPXM9

As an extension of our podcast episode on Lessons from the Pandemic, we have a series of blog posts sharing our thoughts and experiences, with some excerpts below to glimpse: Dannielle Samuel, MSW RSW’s Reflections The main lesson I learned from the pandemic is that I need to take time for self-reflection. But overall, self-reflection is not scary, and this is a lesson I take not only personally, but that I share with everyone. Leslie often catches me talking with people, and I say, okay, let’s just take a breath here, or let’s all collectively take a moment because we need to be in touch. I know I need to be more in touch with what’s going on internally. The next lesson I learned is that our human connection is more important than we ever imagined. And we all learned that the hard way, unfortunately through the pandemic. Leslie Giddings’ Reflections As a thinker and a doer, I realised the isolation of the pandemic was very challenging because I couldn’t carry out all my needs on my own. I realised the value of the places out in the world that helped me meet my own needs. Being left to my own devices during the pandemic, I now value those support systems even more than before because now I know that even if I can meet many of my needs, I can’t meet them all. #pandemicreflections #pandemiclessons #pandemic https://lnkd.in/gZhTcBza
