I believe that having the courage to be yourself, to truly be who you are, is an undervalued skill. Not everyone can embrace who they are regardless of backlash. So many are forced to live a life they are not fully happy with because they are locked in a false persona they cannot identify with. My guest this week, Tien Neo Eamas, is one of those courageous people who refuse to live a false life.
Tien is an amazing artist and silversmith who takes deep pride in his work. Everything he does, he does so with genuinity. In today’s day and age, being a creative is not synonymous with being successful. Tien is definitely an exception to this as he has multiple different skills that he has transformed from fun hobby to profitable business.
Tien has overcome many obstacles in his life, including being the first Asian transgender man in Vancouver. The type of loneliness he has endured and overcome is a testament to Tien’s strength, ability, and wisdom. I would highly recommend hearing what he has to say. No matter how you identify, we could all learn to be a little more accepting of who we are.
