This is such an excellent point. It is kind of awe-inspiring to see people being brave and working through the things that cause them pain, being *real*. If you think about how many people you interact with on a daily basis that wear a mask and generally fake their way through life, how refreshing must it be to do work where the people you are working with are real, and you get to be real-- actually it's required.
Thanks for this!
