IHAD A CHANCE this week to speak with three people who, each in their own way, were influential in the creation of this blog. This has been an important spiritual journey for me, in addition to the more visible discussions we’ve had.
This helped me realize how important is is to acknowledge where your foundation is.
For most people I speak with, this is almost entirely about the people in their lives. Sure, I got into a great career and awesome company right out of college, which somehow set me up to be where I am today. But I’m not going to fall into the delusion of thinking I’m “self-made.”
I think the harder you work, the more you realize how dependent you are on supporters around you.
SOMETIMES I just love this job.
I was speaking with Rich Bradfield recently, one of the founders of Nova Monda Cacao & Chocolate in Lafayette, Colorado. Of course I couldn’t fully appreciate what they do without trying some of their wonderful products, as dried cacao nibs, a couple of ganaches, a truffle, and then a chocolate bar.
The things I put myself through for my readers.
Nova Monda does indeed make some very special and exclusive products, but that’s just a tiny portion of the story of this company.
