Why Purplefeather?

Andrea Gardner
Director

I was working for a large newspaper group and contemplating a complete career change in the year 2000 when I decided to test this ‘law of attraction’ that I’d been reading about. So I visualised the most improbable item I could think of - a purple feather - and set the challenge that if it showed up in my life within a week, I would start my own copywriting business.

Exactly a week later, just as I’d dismissed it all as new age bunkum, I looked across the room to see the exact replica of the purple feather I’d visualised, balanced on the windowsill! After I started breathing again, I walked across for a closer look and realised it was actually a leaf. But by then it was too late. In the journey across the room I’d already made up my mind. Purplefeather was born that day.
