My loved ones know that I belong to the LGBT+ community, but I never imagined sharing this publicly. I always wanted to be known as a leader, full stop, not an LGBT+ leader. But I can't remain silent.  My post on LinkedIn: https://t.co/SkMOfHLUQd

When I was 13, I was a caregiver for my mom, and it was one of the most challenging turning point in my life. I wish there were tools like @WeAreWellthy and @LittleOtterCare back then. I’m so glad we were able to host an amazing panel with such amazing founders. https://t.co/zrDZFQc8ub
