The Glimmering Tide is a substack about hope in the midst of climate breakdown and delves into the intricate relationship between creativity and wellbeing, illuminating how these two elements are intertwined.

Through a thoughtful narrative—a blend of creative non-fiction and poetry—Louisa seeks to uncover the deeper meanings behind her experiences in this time of polycrisis, and her posts are intended to serve as a gentle reminder of the glimmers that surround us all while still speaking truth to power.
