I just watched this, and felt it was relevant to post here:

Very inspirational and insightful. Sometimes, it's just as hard for others to bring up the topic, as well.
This is one voice not to forget;
"Fight every fight like you can win;
An iron fisted champion,"

Kia Ora,
It is a great video, she knows her stuff...
For those of us who have already left the closet we know exactly what's she's talking about ie, "Feel the fear and do it anyway!" ...And those who have yet to venture out the door, well that's still a mystery ? ? ?
French 16th century philosopher Michel de Montaigne sums it up with this quote (edited by 21st century yours truly) 😉
"S/he who 'fears' s/he shall suffer- already suffers what s/he fears!"
Metta Zenda 🙂
"The most essential method which includes all other methods is beholding the mind. The mind is the root from which all things grow. If you can understand the mind, everything else is included !"
