Solo status can be really challenging for most people. The more that you start to see there are other folks like me or they have different stories the more it normalizes the fact that this this place is for me too. You know your identity may have all these positive connections to your story and we ask them what's key to our studies is you don't just tell them something you tell them this idea and then you ask them if this feels true to you how is it connected to your life? We find effects down the line of that reflection.
