“We are so scared to accept [our feelings] that we forget to express them.” In this engaging Talk, Speaker Alifya Yousuf shares some common hurdles of embracing our own emotions and encourages us to find the type of self-expression that fits us best. Alifya leans on writing as her release but stresses "that there is no right or wrong way to express— you can cook, you can write, you can sing, you can dance. You can create your own way and it wouldn’t be wrong.”
