Sochi in the south of Russia is such a beautiful place.

The Black Sea meets these snow capped mountains where in both summer and winter we can play and enjoy nature.

My family is up here for 10 days attending a family retreat run by the founders of Humane Pedagogy - an educational philosophy that empowers children as the leaders of their own development.

Our son, and more children to come, are leaders of our collective future. As are your children!

We must empower them to embody this spirit.
