She has been candid, most importantly, very human with me. I have a relationship with her
that's unlike any other in my life, and that's been the best part. She has embraced me in my very

driver seat of this journey- she has always let me decide for myself. Exercising full agency felt
shaky, but that's the respect and trust I have felt from her, that now it's easier to take up
space
in

for
me
to do so myself.
