Writing Across Boundaries: Building Bridges Through Empathy with Mary Mackey

​Join NY Times Bestselling author, Mary Mackey, and discover the power of writing to transcend boundaries, foster dialogue, and build bridges across differences. In this four-hour interactive retreat, we’ll explore how empathy can transform the way we write and connect with others.
