Embracing Authenticity and Speaking Boldly
The key insight revolves around embracing authenticity and speaking boldly. Being true to oneself on camera or in writing requires a level of comfort and confidence that might develop over time. The ability to express controversial opinions about topics such as transgender issues comes from a position of privilege and security. Having economic stability and unconditional love from others enables one to freely speak their mind, even if it means being provocative, potentially offensive, or facing public backlash. Despite acknowledging making mistakes and knowing that being outspoken could lead to being shamed or canceled by the public, having financial independence provides a certain level of protection to continue speaking boldly.
