My inbox is still inundated with emails from kids, some as young as 10, for the LEGO archaeology challenge. I am so completely disturbed that their teachers would encourage them to write emails to a total stranger- 95% do not cc an adult *and ask me for a 1 on 1 zoom*. Folks this is so NOT OK.

You will be disrespected by people who envy your ability to be authentic. You will be dismissed by people who fear your strength in how you address your pain. You will be critiqued by oppressors as you find the things that set you free. It’s your life. Don’t slow down for them.
