The ability to recognize our differences and embrace them. The ability for people to express their culture without fear of backlash or any sort of stigma. The ability for someone to be who they really are, and not just what some people want them to be.
One day setting aside everyone’s differences and being able to come together to talk about solutions for the inevitable problems we face as a global community.

Imagine how free we could be if we were able to let go of our egos. If we embraced compassion and intention. If we took every step or movement with kindness and generosity. How can we be free if we are burdened by the negative energy that allows us to […]
Imagine how free we could be if everyone had access to mental health care and there wasn’t stigma around seeking help?
I dream of freedom as the ability to become whatever one wishes wherever one wishes, regardless of socioeconomic status, race, gender, or sexuality.
I dream of freedom as a world where journalists are able to freely express themselves without fear of censorship, oppression or death.
