What a delightful and encouraging conversation this was, one that was so relatable and one that left me feeling like I could give myself the permission and courage to not give up on pursuing and chasing my heart’s desires despite the pressures stemming from our culture conditioning, norms and stereotypes. I love how young yet how in touch she is with her thoughts and feelings and how she was able to channel that into passion to help others just like her.
