#ConsciousConvo Roundup: Less About What You Do & More About Why You Do It
For August, Arielle Tuzon’s article (published here on consciousmagazine.co) about changing the conversation around “What do you do?” inspired me to explore this topic with our Conscious Community on Twitter. Through this online event, we wanted to encourage others to think outside the norm and to really explore what they are passionate about, motivated by, and contemplate the defining factors in their lives.
Here are the questions and some of the responses via the #ConsciousConvo:
Q1: What are you passionate about? What motivates you?
We are passionate about art, music, film, fashion and how they can make a social impact! #consciousconvo

We are #passionate about changing “business as usual” mentality of beauty industry + providing an alt sustainable model #ConsciousConvo — Huckleberry (@hellohuck) August 7, 2014
@cmagazine Fashion, helping others, communication, Jesus!

Q2: Is it better to get rich and then give back… or dedicate your life to service?
@cmagazine amazing question! Both have immense value, so do what makes your heart happy and the best outcome will be achieved, I say x — Lisa Heinze (@lisa_heinze) August 7, 2014
A2: Some of have been volunteering and giving back since we were young. Helping others doesn’t always cost money. #consciousconvo — #DOYGOESGOLD (@dreamonyouth) August 7, 2014
@cmagazine It’s varies. Regardless, if you’re taking steps to #giveback then you’re already heading in the right direction! #ConsciousConvo — The Style Line (@thestyleline) August 7, 2014
