Rethinking It All … Once Again!

As a lifelong practioner of yoga, every day I approach the mat I am different in both mind and body. The practice is not the actual moves, but being able to tune into these subtle nuances and act accordingly. Knowing this doesn’t mean I still don’t try to force a pose to happen because I did it yesterday. But eventually something tells me to change (usually it’s my lower back screaming that does the trick). So this is me facing up to the fact that for the past month I’ve been avoiding my blog, knowing that it needs to change to reflect what I really want to say.

I started Fuel: Passions That Drive Us because I missed writing the personal essays I used to write each month for an industry magazine. Now I realize that what I miss most is interviewing creative people, discovering their stories and sharing them.

At a conference in Vegas this month I met a lot of really great new people and got reacquainted with a lot of old friends that reminded me that I’m always in awe of and inspired by these people, their thoughts and actions. And, I’ve noticed lately that traditional media seems to have less and less space for these types of stories. I’d like to fill that gap finding the nuggets of gold that make certain people shine so brightly and make us all a little richer as a community.

In the next couple days I’ll let you know who and what I’ll be writing about in the coming weeks. I hope you will enjoy reading these stories as much as I know I’m gong to love writing them!
