What is 'Being'?
I came up with this idea where I wanted people of all ages to have a platform where they can share what it is like to be them in today's society. I wanted this to be something where people can feel comfortable talking about themselves and hopefully inspire others to share as well. I want Being to instil confidence in people and let them know that it is okay to express who you are and be comfortable in your own skin. Even if it's just one person who shares their story, who expresses themselves, that one person can encourage someone else to share their story.
As a young person, I went through so many struggles, obstacles and changes that made me feel uncomfortable with myself. But as I grew up and heard about other people going through similar experiences, it made me feel a lot better to know that other people felt the way I did.
I don't want Being to just be about struggles, I want it to be about successes and accomplishments, whether that be big or small. I want people to share their passions and inspirations and what morivates them. Being is about you and I trying to navigate this thing called life. It's about supporting and uplifting each other when we need it the most. It's about sharing the things that make us happy, sad, angry, excited, scared. It's about being you.
I hope Being is a place where you can be you.
Much love,
Tami
