I grew in Sofia, Bulgaria in the 80s and have been living in the US for the past 25 years. I believe that if we know better, we can do better. I believe we are meant to live together, in a tribe, that supports and helps each other; that there is strength and growth when we have a support system and that we should not face life alone. I believe that understanding how our brain and body work is critical, not only because it helps us heal our own wounds, but because we are affecting the next generations. There is a ripple trauma effect, that goes through generations and with the knowledge we have today, we have the power to change that, today and tomorrow.
