We have different stories, different voices, different motivations, different goals.
Some bound into any room with bubbling enthusiasm, confident in their abilities and fed by success… others tread more hesitantly, as yet unproven and working to define.
We write of health and wellness, or maybe business… perhaps children and parenting, or maybe activism… perhaps life and love, or maybe politics.
Our words are infused with tenderness, joy, indignation, humour, anger, sorrow, passion, insight.
We choose to open our lives and share small morsels of our valuable selves – the life changes and hard-earned knowledge, the mistakes made and lessons learned, the days seized and wisdom gained.
And we, with all who listen, are the better for this gift.
