Hi, I’m Hope. That’s how people usually start these things, right? Isn’t it curious coming up with a limited list of ways that you’re defined? It seems that, perhaps, maybe, we need new narratives. We need new words. We need original thought. We need unfiltered, un(heavily)-edited, perhaps even unhinged prose that explores things like being ‘part of nature’ in more depth than just a catchy, seen-everywhere tagline like “we are nature too”.

I’m calling these realisations I’ve had in business, but they are also applicable to life. I suppose, in a way, they’re values I’m guided by for living. I hope that the world of business will become less pressure-some, a lot more real, and most importantly, more in tune with human beings, not human doings.
