#001: What is Community? Fantasy vs. Reality

Hello friends and welcome to the Inside Community Podcast where I bring you along for an inside look at what it takes to create and sustain community.  In this first episode we are going to take a look at what we actually mean when we say "community." This episode is going to cover a lot of the basics, but we will also get into some of the projections, fantasies and realities of what community is.  So whether you are new to this topic or someone who's been wondering if community is right for you… hopefully you’ll all find some useful nuggets here!
