On May 20, 2020, I decided that I am done losing sleep because I'm so worried about what other people think of me. I decided that I will no longer hide myself, my talents, or my accomplishments because I'm afraid that others will assume that I'm snobby or arrogant. I am committing to a life in which I do not have to hide all the wonderful parts of myself in order to feel that I belong in a space with others. And, if there isn't a seat for me at someone else's table, I will be building my own table.
