Challenge Day courageously seeks to end bullying in schools. Co-founded by Rich & Yvonne Dutra-St.John, I had the honor of interviewing them.

Here's the thing: don't dull your flame. I would love to tell you that if you just "be yourself," others will come around. I would love to tell you that the choices will always be easy. They're not, and that's okay. Easy is often less interesting.

It is okay...I like reminding myself of this--remembering that wherever I'm at is fine, and wherever you're at is fine, too, as long as neither of us step out of the game of accepting ourselves and each other.

"Manifesting" has become one of those terms that I almost dislike--it's just so over-used, so patently misunderstood.
