So I'm going to give you 6 pieces of advice. Stop apologizing for taking up space. That's really important. I hear that, oh, I'm going to stay small. I'm going to stay quiet. If I don't make a lot of noise, I won't be a target. That's a big one. I was told I was nothing. I was told I wouldn't amount to anything. No, take up as much space as possible. And I think that's why I love yoga and qigong. I love those somatic practices because I'm expanding my space, my energy, my aura, my layers of my physicality and my spirituality. So take up space, please, please, and never apologize, ever, ever, ever. I think they say don't explain, don't complain, and I'm going to throw in don't apologize. You have every right to be here.
