Inspired-Inspirers goes Live!

Today, after a whole lot of waiting, testing and preparing, finally the very first issue of my latest project Inspired-Inspirers sees the light of day.

Inspired-Inspirers is a place for inspiring people to show the world who inspires them.

This project aims to show that all of those who continue to push boundaries and amaze us all in many ways are the same as us. They are inspiring as well as inspired, teachers as well as learners.

The website’s idea is simple. Once every two weeks a brand new issue is released showcasing 4 inspirers from all sorts of places and disciplines. At the same time, each of these 4 featured guests show us 4 individuals that have inspired or continue to inspire them to keep moving forward and improving.

Hope you enjoy it. Any comments of course are always welcome.
