The natural way of storytelling is the most powerful spiritual way to reach people, open their hearts, and sow the seeds of truth. This badly needs to be done. Adrian is a very accomplished storyteller. He does great work at opening closed hearts.

Yorta Yorta elder and Master Storyteller
Masterful storytelling finds the lost keys, opens the locked doors, realigns people to their core where they are able to better understand any unbalance through adding spiritual, emotional, and often academic scaffolding to climb from a dark place sometimes to a better reality. As Albert Einstein once said: 'Imagination is greater than knowledge'.
