Excellent article @SofiaBalderson These insights are exactly what we need from an experience sharing perspective and I think it would be a beneficial addition as suggested reading in the CEA Bootcamp and HIP programmes.

Your advice resonates so much as I’ve just found an excellent volunteering opportunity on Flockwork through some surface building work and the founder commented on the serendipitous nature of the connection.

Thanks for the inspiration!

I had similar conflicts on this topic, however some reading about the Buddhist views on altruism helped.  A lot of your points resonate. I do think you can do good to feel better, and also just feel better about doing good which is ok and probably the place most of us want to be in.
