"I’m passionately driven to impact who our children become. People often divide over differences, afraid of others that don't look or act like them. I firmly believe the more diversity around us, our greater potential for growth. It's important we see and experience those differences in our imagination and through real life adventures for true compassion to take hold in our heart." |
