Iāve written many letters, but the letters that have been most impactful are a collection that Iāve written to my absent father. As the pile of letters grew, so did my empathy. Through this I found forgiveness for a man I barely know.Ā
Women always ask about my confidence. They really want to ask how I built up the courage to take up space publicly. Dance brings me joy, and in a world that works to steal my smile, joy is worth resistance.
