Boom Boom! Revolution

Here at Boom Boom! we are known for advocating intentional acts of kindness to bring forth an uprising of guerilla goodness. We do it because we have seen how much can be accomplished through simple acts of kindness. Through these cards, we hope educators and parents are motivated to inspire kids to perform acts of [...]

Let the count-up commence! We’ve got some extra energy around here lately because every time we turn around a new act of kindness post appears, bringing us ever closer to reaching the milestone of 5,000 act of kindness posts. While we can vividly recall the very first one, it is a bit more difficult to [...]

No, we’re not doctors, but we do believe that performing acts of kindness improves physical and mental wellbeing. The health benefits of kindness are vast, inexpensive, and easily obtained. Really? Health Benefits of Kindness? Says Who? Examples are documented everywhere! Medical experts have conducted studies to prove and evaluate the health benefits of kindness. Some [...]

What an adventure! A nine hour ride to LA in Rosie the Boom Boom! Bus. Ran out of gas en route (dorks!). Went to a taping of “The Ellen Show”. Drove all over LA filming season two footage for “Journey to Ellen”. Spent two days handing out Boom Boom! Cards to some awesome celebrities. Made [...]

The rhythm of our lives creates the music of our days. Hmmmmm. I’m wondering if I’ve heard that somewhere before or if I’ve reached a new understanding of life…an epiphany so to speak…or at least a deep thought worth contemplating. I came to this idea on my run a couple mornings ago. It was a [...]

The great U2 lyrics… “But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for” have always moved me, but not today. Why? Because I have come to believe that, in life, we do actually find exactly what we’re looking for, we just might not be aware of it. If we want to find love, it is [...]

Last summer I took a series of Warrior Yoga classes from a sensei up at UCSC. I’m not exactly the yoga type…not very flexible and when I work out, I want to sweat, not chant (that shows you my yoga ignorance). Those classes kicked my butt! And they were also great for pushing on some [...]

I played point guard in high school (that’s basketball for you non sports folks). No surprise if you’ve seen my legs and definitely no surprise if you’ve seen how slow I am. I had to make up for the short legs and lack of quickness by being smart on the court. My coach used to [...]
