This week I had the honor of joining young leaders from 180+ countries at #Youth4Climate in Milan 🌺 So grateful to have been part of difficult yet necessary conversations, each a testament to our collective power to mobilize, debate, and manifest a future we can all believe in.

Yesterday I graduated from Harvard University. Baba always reminds me that stories are like windshield wipers during a storm; they won’t get rid of all of the rain, but they will make our way clearer. Stories, and their tellers, made this moment possible. Endlessly grateful 🙏🏼❤️
