In this episode, we are joined by Rik Adamski of Ash + Lime, as we delve into the concept of "3rd places" and their vital role in fostering community and connection. Expanding beyond the realms of home (1st place) and work (2nd place), 3rd places encapsulate environments like cafes, parks, and community centers where individuals gather to socialize, relax, and engage in meaningful interactions. We explore how 3rd places contribute to a sense of belonging, encourage serendipitous encounters, safety, and nurture a diverse range of relationships, and even their role in experiencing our community and environment.
