Movember

The 19-day challenge to write a post everyday results: 15/19 days with 16 posts. Not perfect, but the momentum is turning. Just as in any challenge, there are obstacles to overcome and I feel pretty good about not going more than two days without posting. Hopefully, there were some interesting items that either helped you learn something or spurred some reflection or thought.

On to the next 30-day challenge - Movember.

No, I didn't spell it wrong. It is officially Movember, the month when men around the world will grow moustaches to raise money and awareness for men's health. As an advocate for better health for all, this particular drive has a personal touch for me. My dad died of prostate cancer when he was only 70; way too young. It is my goal to help men and women become more aware of the importance of good health and exercise. Plus, I don't have to shave for a few days. :)

So, check out the Movember site, participate if you would like, donate to a good cause, or just follow along and have fun watching the progress.

I am doing some work on behalf of Penhaligon’s, the British perfume house. We’re looking to raise awareness of their charity event Movember during the month of November.

Exclusively for Movember, Penhaligon’s are bringing back their gentleman’s shaving service, participants of Movember will be able to experience a complimentary Mo Trim at their flagship boutique in London’s Covent Garden. They are also donating 20% of profit on shaving products online and instore directly to Movember.

Penhaligons is a perfume house established in London specialising in Luxury Gifts and Frangrances
