I grew up in Westlake Villiage, a suburb of L.A. There was a guy there who was a fighter and was like, 'I'll teach you to box.' I started a little bit of boxing, then it crossed over into jiu-jitsu. I was into it for a little while, but then I started doing basketball, baseball, team sports. Jonathan Lipnicki baseballbasketballbite share on social

My parents never said to us, 'Don't you think you'll need something to fall back on?' They acted as though creativity was completely normal. Julia Cameron actartback share on social
