Instead of editing your authentic self to fit into oppressive systems, you can use the liberation framework—Recognize, Release, Reclaim, and Rise—to reclaim your joy, boost your well-being, and ultimately create a more positive, productive, and inclusive environment for yourself and others. - Dr. Laurie Vázquez
