How does Yung Pueblo live through love? “With the people that I'm meeting for the first time, I don't know how their day has been, I don't know what you've been up to, I don't even really know what primary emotion you're holding in that moment that we're meeting. So to move forward with gentleness feels like the everyday mission for me.”

"My sadness was a motivator. My pain was my teacher. If you listen closely to your hurt, it will say there is a better way than this and all you have to do is respond. Show me, I'm ready." - Yung Pueblo
