In such a pivotal moment in history, I choose to look to the leaders and teachers that have paved the way for change with compassion, faith and love. 

Tim Storey, a man I am honored to call a dear friend and one of my greatest teachers, is a perfect example of this. Tim leads with love and faith in all things, and offers such radical empathy in the face of all that he has experienced as a Black man in this country.

Tim joined me a few weeks back for an incredible conversation on IG live. We talked about everything from radical empathy, to being a leader wherever you are, to how to overcome prejudice with grace and love, instead of fear and hate.
