What a terrific panel by Canadian Geographic Travel’s Andrew Lovesey at the Travel And Leisure Show Canada I’d attended this week. As usual, the indomitable Zita Cobb, inn-keeper at Fogo Island Inn in Newfoundland, knocked it out of the park.

Have you met someone who had inspired you, and you felt a little gobsmacked? I met @simonsinek at a #virtuosotravel week opening session, after he’d been the keynote speaker at our opening session. I’d read Simon’s book, Start With Why, and it really resonated with me. People don’t buy what you do, they buy why you do
