The South is home to some of the world’s best and brightest people — thoughtful, innovative, mindful, creative, productive. And when people share their thoughts and ideas — their voices — the opportunity to inspire the world becomes exponentially greater. It’s that notion that is the foundation for Southern Voices, StyleBlueprint’s platform where we invite people to share their life’s wisdom with our readers. We’ll be sharing written submissions as Southern Voices Stories and you can also chime in on our Southern Voices Podcast. Ideas are boundless, and we are looking for men and women of all ages to contribute stories both light (a comically funny morning that sums up motherhood?) and deep (your first holiday without a loved one who has passed). While religion may factor in, we are looking to leave politics aside as much as possible.
