“And that’s what I love about being on social media – seeing people’s big wins, achievements and beautiful life moments and celebrating with them – but I also love people’s honesty when people things don’t go well – it takes courage to open up and be vulnerable here because you never know how it will be received and as we all know people can be cruel, I feel feels like now more than ever there is an anger towards the platform.”

“Or my efforts aren’t good enough!! This dialogue is exhausting! And for someone like me who is really just trying to spread some love, light and positivity- it’s just too much! .”
