Tell me more about cohousing Lynn Morstead & Kelli Soika

In Episode 29 Lynn Morstead and Kelli Soika replay the 2022 story of the mystery old safe that was left behind in the tear-down building on the property. Before the bulldozers knocked it down a spirit of curiosity blew through the community that lead to collective initiative to get it cracked and opened. Join the fun ride through their efforts to raise the money to open it and all the plans they had for spending the treasure that surely must be locked inside.

In Episode 27 Lynn Morstead and Kelli Soika interview Susan Lieberman, a woman who builds community wherever she goes.... and she's been lots of places! She has "lived in nine cities, written eight books, directed four educational programs, earned three graduate degrees, raised two sons and thinks, one day, she may, perhaps, acquire a partridge in a pear tree".  So she knows something about creating connections. 
The unifying theme in all her work has been a desire to help people find satisfying resolutions to the situations that arise from leading busy, complicated lives and to grow into their best selves.

If you'd like to learn more about Susan, check out her website. Or buy her new book,  In the Country of Old: Nine reflections from a new immigrant to the Country of Old.

In Episode 24 Lynn Morstead and Kelli Soika discuss about how cohousing facilitates letting go of some things that our modern lives foist upon us. As Lynn puts it "this isn't about downsizing!" Instead, they look at the ways that intentional community offers an alternative.
