What drew me to marketing?

Why did it interest me?

I liked how it was a way of speaking and sharing.

I knew that I wanted to find ways to make income streams that supported me in doing work that was meaningful to me.

I found other people talking about how important it was for them to do their own meaningful work, to make a living.

The contrast between independent and collaborative creative work outside of a corporate context and the "9 to 5 job" of which so many of us were critical was the subject of many blog posts, conversations, podcasts, and sundry.

Illustrations, even.

Infographics.

I gravitated towards people who seemed to reflect and safeguard the values most important to me.

(Is that right?)

We all wanted to be free to engage in kindness as our work.

Or did we?

Maybe that was the roofies.

I find myself now investigating what exactly it was I believed, and how much evidence there was for that belief at the time, as if the experience could ever be reclaimed that way.

Marketing meant making money making meaning with people who cared about people.

I knew that that's not what marketing was to begin with.

But I believed the community energies around me when they expressed that they intended to change it.

And so, I think for many of us, marketing became something different.

It became a means of communicating a new possible economy, ecology, and nourishment.

Was it so deep and beautiful an experiment?

I'm not sure yet.
