We live in a world that uses labels to distinguish differences so we can understand what is often a complex world with so many unknowns. This can often lead us to not want to stand out for the fear of being labeled as different and sometimes even ostracised by friends, family, peers, and society at large. This is particularly true for certain backgrounds of society and those who interact with the world in perceived unconventional ways. Oftentimes, this leads people to hide their behaviors...

In this episode, the...

Instead, we have to consciously choose to take it upon ourselves. However, only a few of us do because for the most of us, we don't know what we...
