Today on the Bravehearts Rising Podcast I’m talking to the brilliant Eli Trier. Based in the beautiful city of Copenhagen she is a community builder for Quiet Revolutionaries and is passionate about helping introverts with big dreams to get connected and build thriving, engaged communities so that they make their corner of the world a better place.
