The first issue of volume X will be a survey of the unique journeys people take when experiencing and undergoing self-transformation, journeys that all start with a little fire, a desire, deep inside. This issue’s theme is UNFURL

: to release from a furled, coiled, or wrapped state
: to open out from or as if from a furled state
: to unfold

Here are some guiding questions about the topic and theme:

1. What role did community play in finding yourself?

2. How has your sense of self changed due to your transformation? What about your relationships?

3. What did you find along the way?

4. What do you still need to be authentically you?

5. Was there something that forced you to be a different version of yourself? How did you internalize it?
