When I was five, my best friend and I would walk to the pond nearby and collect baby frogs.
One day we took them to a cool shady spot, connected with our hearts, and kissed them.
We weren't sure this would change them into princes- in fact we were doubtful- but we sensed that it would somehow change us.
This early experience blossomed into a life-long passion for kissing the shadow, and activating change, personally and collectively.
I grew up in a multi-cultural, multi-class, and multi-religious family, and became fascinated by how culture shapes our personal and collective experiences.
