Refusing to be a Footnote in Other People Stories | Journey 29 w/ Dakshima Haputhanthri

from The Journey with Jared · host Jared Salekin

Dakshima Haputhanthri is a former lawyer from Sri Lanka, she emigrated to Canada and founded Dilipani, an organization that helps people from the LGBTQ2S+ community come out.  We dive into Dakshima's personal story of coming out to her family, how she had to live two separate lives in her home country of Sri Lanka, as being gay is illegal, and her struggles with mental health throughout the whole process. We discuss her journey of being able to truly embrace herself and who she is.  You can find Dakshima here:  Website: www.dilipani.com Instagram: @dilipaniyourguidinglight Facebook: @Dilipani Email: [email protected] Follow me on IG for more content @jaredsalekin
