Why the name “In The Margins?”
Margins means so many things. Quite literally Kaleidoscopic thinkers (who this site was designed for) often take their non-linear thoughts to the margins of their notebooks. Also, many people who think differently are often marginalized in different capacities. This causes them to “mask” or show up in a way that isn’t their true selves and makes it hard for them to use their voice and share their ideas with others. This is all about helping them get out of the margins and onto the page.
What can I use the library for?
This is a great place to learn how to care for your clients and for yourself when it comes to visual thinking.
You’ll find:

There are 5 main sections in the library:

Kaleidoscopic Thinker Self Care - if you’re a kaleidoscopic thinker, this section has love letters and visual support for getting to know yourself (if you don’t know what kind of thinker you are then join the email list because below because a quiz is coming!)
