The Nest

LampPost Victoria Co-Founder Simon Larocque sits down with Operations Manager and Nest producer Rae Dawson to discuss LampPost’s venture into creating community connections in Victoria, B.C. LampPost Victoria is an event calendar platform for finding events, hosting events and regular meet-ups, and community cohort gatherings. They discuss what LampPost is and the inspiration behind it, tangible ways to build a community and make connections, and practicing stepping out of your comfort zone in an algorithmic world.
