I’ve spent most of my life behind the camera, but I occasionally end up out in front of it too. Like the buzz I get talking with inspirational pals, or when I want to laugh/cry/hide under a rock, or other times still when I get to launch a thing or two that the world hasn’t seen before.
And then there’s the ‘other side of the lens’ stuff I get the opportunity to as a…um…”influencer” (wack term / really awkward). I say no to 99% of that stuff (esp cringe-worthy things) UNLESS it has something to do with what I love – like say the Seahawks in the Superbowl. Or in this case where I said yes to this #ad for Ford because (as someone who is obsessed with lifelong learning) my job was literally to spend all day learning pilates from rockstar internet pal/celeb Cassey Ho. What I missed, however, was the memo saying that I also had to…um…TEACH a class.
Respect to Ford for encouraging people to step out of their comfort zones and for sponsoring this learning series.
