The hardest part about what I do, the most vulnerable place is my relationship with my family and Sara, my amazing partner, because I'm leaving a lot.

Music and yoga have a great synergy.

Many kids in foster homes have a lot of emotions that are hard to get out. It's important to let them know they can make a difference in the community.

Everyone deserves music.
Michael Franti
Sometimes, I feel like I can do anything, and, sometimes, I'm so alive, sometimes, I feel like I could zoom across the sky and, sometimes, I wanna cry.
Michael Franti
I believe that through positive thoughts, speech, action and attitudes, we change things for the better.
