After having been hit in the chest by a firework, Hilary had some decisions to make. She could continue to wallow in her self pity or she could decide to overcome this fear of being seen with her burn scars. Time after time, Hilary has shown how uncomfortable situations allow you to learn more about yourself than you ever thought you could. They allow you to grow into someone you never saw coming. Hilary and I talked about how we all should be striving to be authentic and to be 100% ourselves; while also trying to upgrade that person everyday and to "magnify our own uniqueness." I hope you all enjoy all the stories Hilary shares from not being accepted to any graduate school programs, to living in Fiji for a month, to getting hit by a faulty firework, etc. She is amazing!
