2021 has been a year like no other. Many of us were out of our comfort zone because of what’s happening in the world. And some people stepped out even further.

Meet some people from Connecticut who’ve done bold, brave things - including a man who went from completely paralyzed to running a gauntlet, a young person who planned her town’s first pride parade, and Hartford’s first troubadour, and flow artist.
