Ken Nwadike Jr. is the founder of the Free Hugs Project, using the power of hugs to foster peace and connection. He shares how missing the Boston Marathon qualifying time by just 11 seconds twice led him to activate a transformative movement after the 2013 bombing. Inspired by his mother and the challenges of his upbringing, he now spreads kindness at protests and difficult moments. Ken discusses the significance of a single hug in bridging divides and his mission to create empathy and understanding, even in the most turbulent times.
