“The opposite of belonging is fitting in. Because fitting in is assessing a group of people and thinking who do I need to be…and changing who you are, and true belonging never asks us to change who we are, it demands that we be who we are. Because if we fit in because of how we changed ourselves…you betrayed yourself for other people, and that’s not sustainable.” – Brene Brown
