When we hear each other's stories, we learn so much more about each other - we get in touch with what is sacred, tender and joyful in each other. And then, we don't feel so alone.
In an age in which stories have become soundbites for social consumption, our stories matter more than ever. At the heart of all our stories is where we are in this moment, right now.
In this launch episode, Marlon de Souza shares moments from his schooldays as a young pre-teen in Bandra, a suburb of Mumbai, India. Tall tales of childhood bravado mix with memories of tenderness.
