In addition to all of the things my parents taught me, now I wear eco-friendly, natural, toxin free makeup and use many other green products. I don't eat red meat.

NICOLE NARAIN INTERVIEW
Recently, Nicole Narain and a girlfriend were hiking through one of the rustic canyon trails in the hills that fringe the Los Angeles basin. "We turned a corner," she recalls, her voice still tinged with the awe and fear she felt, "and there was a wolf." The two women froze in their tracks. So did the wolf. "He was probably as scared of us as we were of him," Nicole says with an uneasy laugh. Finally, the animal turned and disappeared into the undergrowth.

VANESSA GLEASON INTERVIEW

"For me, native dancing from Mexico is so healing," she explains. "We honor the earth, the seasons, the elements, and our ancestors. The Aztecs were a matriarchal society, and women are highly venerated. I was able to feel strong and safe about being a woman again, and I began to blossom." (more)
