Kabir likens this season of his life to building the plane as it falls from the sky, rather than as you fly it. This is an honest and helpful example of living mindfully and intentionally through uncertainty, as Kabir fundraises to pay for rent and his team of five caregivers (a necessity for him to survive).

We also discuss how to become great compost. Food for thought.

Kabir is a writer, entrepreneur, visionary, and mentor in his 20th year of quadriplegic paralysis. A founding member of the Patient Pioneers at Project Apollo (how we met), graduate of the world-renowned Generating Transformative Change leadership development program with Pacific Integral, and the executive director of Open Field Awakening, he places his deepest embodied prayer and most sincere efforts towards the fruition of realizing an integral, ethical, and practical expression of impact in the world.
