Art You Crazy? sits down with Kyra Peralte, founder of The Traveling Diary, a community of women+ who share their personal experiences with each other by mailing an old-school notebook from person to person and handwriting their diary entries.  What started as a small collection of strangers has now grown to over 2,000 participants from more than 30 countries across the globe, with over 50 journals in circulation.

In this very special episode, Tessie and Erin talk with Kyra about the power of authentic connection between strangers, the challenges and blessings of building a global community in an analogue way, and the courage to follow what feels good and right to you as a creator.
