You know, I've been hearing the same old message from those YouTube ads, coaches, and even some successful entrepreneurs.

But I 've learned in my life, there are times that the only way to move forward is to express my true voice, no matter how much of a freak others might think I am. Of course every situation is different and I am not talking about honesty for honesty sake.
