Send us a text We break things. That is what we as humans do. We have an almost innate compulsion to systematically destroy what is around us, usually in the name of greed, access, revenge. Even in the “greatest story ever told,” there is Judas. Who for 30 pieces of silver betrayed a friend with a kiss, ended a ministry, and yet was the match that lit the flame for one of the greatest spiritual, religious and controversial movements of the last two thousand years. We live in a world today tha...

Send us a text Love the Flaws and Uncertainties of Life. There is theme that quickly emerges from my conversation with Seana Kofoed. If you want something in your life, you can’t sit around waiting for someone to recognize your worth. Go out and create it for yourself. And in the pursuit of creating that something that can sometimes be elusive, you can’t be afraid of failure. Because the failure is the byproduct of actually doing the work; sometimes you fall. Now you start to understand why ...

John, at that time, was an ex-model, and a punk rocker fronting his band called Banana Fish that performed in bars around Manhattan with John sporting a white g-string (pun definitely intended) – talk about a man unafraid of risks! He was also a cancer survivor. Prior to his diagnosis, he was one of the cho...
