“Yet there is freedom to be found when we speak their names. When we tell our story. Mind unblocked. Heart unlocked. Let not pain be the end of your story.” - Karega Bailey We're grateful to SOL Development and BE-IMAGINATIVE for their bravery and heart in sharing their story. If it moves you, please let us know in the comments.
