The Value of Community - 201

CONNIE ALBERS
About this episode

What's the value of community? Communities stitch together threads of warmth, creating a cozy haven where ever moms find a place to belong and an opportunity to share experiences. Are you like most people who long for friends or someone to share life experiences with? You aren't alone. 

We are created for community, but how do we find our people? That's what Connie is focusing on in this episode of #EquippedToBe.
