Curious Chats and Kind Acts
By Acts
The first step to kindness is understanding and this is what we're here to do! Honest, authentic and truly fascinating conversations with people who are all a bit different. It's for curious humans, especially if you don’t have the opportunity to meet people who are a bit different in real life. We bring you conversations direct from the horse's mouth and ask the questions we know you’re dying to ask.
