Emergence Arts Presents: Take PRIDE!

It's been a busy spring. On the Spring Equinox I was fired from my job of three years because [they said] I gave up, wasn't passionate, was disrespectful, and difficult. That gave me time to pause and think about what path I wanted to explore next.

The moment I realized how much of myself I gave away, how often I compromised my values by staying quiet and complacent, witnessed how people could take credit for my merits, and how apologetic I became for even existing, I broke up with that version of me and reinvented myself.

When they thought they stripped me of something, I realized it was never mine to begin with and all I had to do was let them relieve me of the burden I didn't know was weighing me down. It wasn't until it was lifted, was I able to reclaim my self worth and take back my pride with a whole new perspective on who I want to be and what I want to accomplish as a human being.

Emergence Arts presents: Take PRIDE! 2021 - a show of resilience, taking back your pride, and living your best damn life. Don't let anybody tell you who you are, you just show up, and be spectacularly you! The world awaits!!
