FROM THE PUBLISHER 2016 Living Well Magazine Celebrates 10 Years of Service 2006 DENTON COUNTY President & CEO Sam Houston Vice president & CFO Spring Houston Feature Writer, copy editor & social media director Sondra Barr Art Director, layout, Production & website design Lewis Schucart JennieJamesPhotography.com A s we continue to celebrate LIVING WELL Magazine’s 10th anniversary, we’re frequently reminded why we started this journey. Over the years, we’ve stepped into the offices of many of the area’s leading professionals in a variety of fields––medical, law, fitness, travel, lifestyle, and more. While each business is unique and diverse in its offerings, the common denominator driving the men and women making these organizations work is passion. It’s a passion to help those in the community that compels them to get up each morning and make a difference––not only in their own lives, but in the lives around them. The professional contributing writers you find inside this publication lead the field in their chosen fields. They take time to share their qualified knowledge with readers and address issues that many of us face at one time or another. While delivering magazines throughout the community, we often chat with people who pick the publication up and comment about articles that have helped them. For instance, a woman walking into a doctor’s office recently mentioned to us how her life has changed for the better after she found a wonderful audiologist in the pages of LIVING WELL. Turns out, the audiologist fitted her with digital hearing aids that she’d read about in the magazine. Reader feedback like that is inspiring. On that subject, take a look at our celebrity cover profile on one of music’s most inspiring voices. Jewel is a 42-year-old songstress whose 1995 debut album introduced us to a very young woman with a very old soul, full of life experience that most of us––at any age––have only dreamed of. From her simple upbringing in Alaska to traveling the country performing in coffeehouses with little money to her name, her story is one of success, failure, passion, and free digital subscription faith. Don’t miss her profile inside, in addition to the rest of the informative content. As always, a huge thank you to this supportive community. Here’s to another 10 years! Now, get reading.
