Episode 23_The Power of Third Spaces: Why Community Matters in a Creative Life
Description
In Episode 23 of Stitching up Trouble, we’re diving into the concept of third spaces—those meaningful places outside of home and work where people gather, connect, and belong.
Inspired by a conversation with Mary’s daughter-in-law, we explore what third spaces are, how they’ve changed over time, and why they’re more important than ever in today’s disconnected world. From traditional spots like cafes and libraries to modern hubs like quilt retreats, hobby classes, and fabric shops, we’re talking about the role these spaces play in building community and supporting mental health.
Whether you’ve found your third space in a sewing circle or you’re still searching for it, this episode will inspire you to reconnect with people, purpose, and creativity.
