Elle’s journey back to the self, catalyzed by the pandemic, has led her to use her voice to encourage all folks to see themselves beyond society’s rules and expectations. To honor the infinity within us, and to love ourselves as we are, is the journey of a warrior. If we want to bring an end to suffering, each of us must choose to be a warrior.
