Kate, you are very courageous to become and stay yourself in such an environment which seems to need a different approach. I am glad that you took on the challenge and didn’t fear the initial drop of “success” — for later gain real and honest success.
You wrote: We are Aesop’s tortoise — slowly and steadily we shall win the race.
I really do hope so! And may your example encourage mans people! I myself try to be happy with the little response on what I am doing — my way of publicity is probably not the right one. And I hope that, sooner or later, many more people will understand that I have to offer something — which is not easy food, but asks people to engage with deeper thinking.
Sending you my energetic support to reach many people who feel not well in the present way of advertising what they have to offer!
Heidi
