What is Collaboration with a Purpose?
Why do we all blog? While we all have our own reasons for blogging (fun, improvement, motivation, etc) and have different topics and style, I’m sure we all wish to do one thing – to reach people. ❤
That’s why in Collaboration with a Purpose, many of us bloggers got together to bring you this themed collaboration series! What happens is: we agree on a theme, we pick a day, and when that day comes by, all of us will publish a post on the same day on that theme. The number of collaborators may vary for each topic, and the publish time may vary according to time zones (hey, we need to sleep too!).
Why the same theme? Because for a single theme, you get many different stories and takes on it. We want to reach people, and to let people know that they’re not the only one going through what they’re going through. Also because I think it’s fun. 😆
