We have moved from Substack to Ghost
Find me at learningtolovewherewelive.com
I started ‘Unravelling Together’ as a way to document my exploration of the polycrisis that we find ourselves in and to find a way to unravel the harmful stories we tell ourselves and start to write some new ones.
The good news is that we did it. We unravelled and now all the crises are averted, phew.
Lol jk.
Though there is some truth in it. I certainly did unravel. And through my unravelling I have now arrived at a new chapter in my life. This one is centred less on crisis and falling apart and more on connection, imagination, action and, of course, love.
So I’m leaving Unravelling Together and Substack (though they will remain live on that platform for now) and I’ve moved to ‘Learning to Love Where We Live’ and Ghost (the open-source platform that allows creators to retain ownership of their own content and data).
You can read more about what Learning to Love Where We Live actually is on my new site.
You can subscribe for free or for the cost of a very overpriced coffee or very cheap pint if the work resonates with you and you want to support me to keep it going.
In short, it’s going to be a series of reflections and copyable ‘challenges’ about learning to love where we live in every sense: our local places, ourselves and each other. Nothing big or scary, just small things like asking your neighbour round for tea or taking up Tai Chi. And the occasional poem.
But if, like me, you feel that the way forward is to do things that bring us a little closer to the places we live, I’d love you to stick around for the next adventure (see what I did there).
I feel an energy and a fire within me that I want to share with you.
Love,
Olivia (V) xxx




Thanks for bringing Ghost to my attention!
