Bakery Bonds True Friends

A few days ago I attended a webinar hosted by the Baker’s Journal. The guest speaker was my buddy Mark Dyck. 

Back when I was a student in The Story Skills Workshop, Mark was the Head Coach. Shortly after joining the coaching staff, I messaged Mark to see how I was doing. Mark shared nothing but amazing things, and encouraged me to continue to be myself. 

His advice must've worked. Mark and I went on to coach in five sessions together before our roles reversed and I was the Head Coach. And as always, Mark was right there to help.

True Friends..

Also the name of a contest Mark ran at Orange Boot Bakery.

A bakery he owned alongside his wife Cindy. 

True Friends..

Went something like this..

Anyone who made a purchase at the Bakery (between the dates given) was eligible to enroll.

Once the entry period ended, three winners were picked.

If you were one of the winners you received a basket filled with fresh bread. 

Once you finished you gave the basket to your very best friend who would then bring the empty basket back to the bakery to be refilled. 

Your best friend would do the same for their best friend, and on and on, this act of generosity would continue for one year. 

How many baskets can we fill? 

That was the question. 

How many gifts can we give? 

How much generosity can we spread? 

How many connections can we make?

How much community can we foster?

True Friends..

Pass it along.
