Quotes:“It’s that one person saying, ‘Wow, I’m so happy you said that,’ that reminds me that my experiences and my perspective ARE really valuable. And not only are they valuable...but maybe just sharing something as simple as my experience can be beneficial and can serve humanity.”- Chrissy King

“You’ve gotta say it and you’ve gotta be confident about it. With the confidence of 1,000 white men, you’ve gotta say the thing!”- Chrissy King

“Someone out there really needs to hear what you have to say in the exact way that you say that. The more you delay, you are delaying that person from having that healing or that discovery or that kinship or that connectedness.”- Shirin Eskandani

“I think a lot of us wait for the perfect time, the perfect context, the perfect post, the perfect way to say it to express ourselves, and that person on the other end is not waiting for perfect. They are just waiting for that thing.”- Shirin Eskandani
