ABOUT
Loss of connection is one of the leading causes of depression and anxiety. People have lost their sense of village, and in a world more connected than ever before, people are feeling increasingly disconnected and alone.

STORY mag - THE MAGAZINE
STORY mag, is an act of kindness. We all have a story to share that has the power to move, inspire or simply let someone know they are not alone in their thoughts or situation.
We are re-discovering connection with self, others, nature and the universe.
“When we need someone to talk to about a personal difficulty, we often seek not sympathy but cognitive empathy, not pity but a sense that the person really understands our difficulty. The sense that someone truly understands us can be cathartic and powerful.
