The workshop allowed me to reflect on my own growth, not only in romantic relationships but also in friendships and family connections. It was amazing to acknowledge my changed perspectives, which have been a product of my hard work to address personal traumas. Also, it was a great experience to go through internally, but the fact that I was able to take part with such an open and amazing group of people felt very liberating. Professor Munshi and all of our classmates have created a welcoming and safe environment, which in turn has allowed me to utilize this workshop and share my personal experience of a damaging father-daughter relationship. Even in an all-virtual classroom, I have gained feelings of being open and protected by all of my peers. Just as much as this was important to me, I hope that all could take away a sense of connection. Knowing that we are not alone and can all support one another in our journey to become kind humans, to others, of course, but especially to ourselves.
