Cycles of work, event, and eat/sleep

Updated: April 13, 2009

It's been a great year going to events, meeting you and making new friends. But our careers are keeping us busy and we won't be able to keep up with the demands to keep up with the event alerts. We will post our reviews when we have a chance from time to time.

Please see right panel for sites we check for unique and fun events from less well-known organizations. See you there -- and don't forget to say hi

Love, peace and music, Jade & CHRIS - )

Book talk: Minding your business (Aug 8, 2008)

Event: In conversation with author and founder of Aveda Horst Rechelbacher on his new book: Minding your business: Profits that restore the plant
Organizer: Indigo
Cost: free!
Pre-event estimate: 3 out of 5
Post-event rating: 2 out of 5

Heather Reisman is a good interviewer... but it is hard when the guest is more interested in chatting than answering her questions. We also discover that critical thinking is our second nature now: We search the whole book for references on many proclamations Rechelbacher makes. It is encouraging to know that his hard work and passion brought him a successful business though.

Our past experience with book talks at Indigo with Heather Reisman is highly positive. Heather prompts her guests to discuss their views on a topic and to share their life experience, without putting words into their mouth. We always walk away with great insights. We will definitely attend the next book talk.
