"In Search of a Safe Space to Feel Everything" explores the desire for emotional vulnerability despite obstacles and trauma making it hard to identify and express emotions. For most of my life I assumed I was nonchalant but it wasn't until recently that I had the revelation that I just shutdown and withdraw emotionally during times of conflict or uncomfortable engagements with the ones I care about. This work marks a personal discovery in my life in hopes of being a more whole human being. I invite those that relate and those that may not, to continue the conversation that I started.
