A New Walking City
Something I never thought I’d see here in Los Angeles. Few cars, lots of pedestrians.

Finding the Spark
This week, one of my clients who trained to be a violinist but is now a corporate lawyer, told me about an uplifting moment. She was hunkered at home with her family when she heard this beautiful sound coming from the neighborhood. Someone who she couldn’t see was playing Bach. She was so moved that she decided to go outside on her front steps with her violin and accompany whoever it was. And as these strangers played together, others on the street came out to listen.
