<strong>Join <a href="https://twitter.com/startingfromnix">Nicole</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/kasratweets">Kasra</a>—writers of the Substacks <a href="https://nicoles.substack.com/">startingfromnix</a> and <a href="https://bitsofwonder.substack.com/">Bits of Wonder</a>, and online seekers of human flourishing, mindfulness, and meaning. We often discuss vulnerability in writing and human relationships.</strong>

“What happens when people open their hearts?" "They get better.”

In this salon, join us in discussing how we engage with vulnerability online and in our own lives. All are welcome – from those who have been Very Online for years, to those who are just starting to experiment with vulnerability on the internet and in person.

We’ll talk about this through the lens of posting thoughts on twitter, writing publicly, and vulnerability in the complex relationships around us. How do you communicate what you need? How do we write from the heart? How much vulnerability is too much?
