Christina is excited to be a part of This Is My Brave because she has a story to be told, one of bravery, knowledge, enlightenment, protection, inner-self-reflection, change and removal of self-doubt. She wants to be a symbol of hope for others to never give up on yourself, and to follow the path your heart leads you on, no matter what.
Christina Schankin encourages empathy and community in her essay
"This is me, standing here in front of you, vulnerable, raw and brave."
