Pleasure was ours! Thanks for finally building the community for community builders. Love you guys! nitter.cf/DavidSpinks/status/100…
Today in CMX Pro I get to interview two incredible community strategists, @lennonflowers and @Carlafernandez, Founders of @dinnerpartiers. They've built an international community of people who experienced loss, and come together over potluck dinners. Incredible story. Pumped.
