"The wonder of the Kootenays has been shaped by those strong individuals who have followed their passions to build genuine and empowered lives. This book inspires and motivates." - Ryan Oakley, Creator of Humans of Nelson |
Delve into the lives of twelve remarkable individuals who call the Kootenay region of British Columbia home. Featuring entrepreneurs, artists, outdoors people, activists, farmers, community builders, teachers, nurses and more, Kootenay Inspired shares their secrets for overcoming enormous challenges, following passions against all odds, and achieving the one goal we’re all striving for: meaning.
With stunning photography and intimate life stories you’ll never forget, Kootenay Inspired offers deep insight into the region’s most precious resource: its extraordinary people. Step into their shoes, and share in their wisdom for living a purposeful, authentic and inspired life. 50% of proceeds will be donated to local charities Tipi Camp and Wildsight to further empower and inspire our community. We are proud to have made our first donation to Tipi Camp to send kids to camp this summer!
"It's a beautiful thing to discover insight and inspiration via your neighbours. With this book Paul has captured the tales that encourage us to live with more intent and purpose.” - Vince Hempsall, Kootenay Mountain Culture magazine |
