(n.) something that’s not acceptable to say, mention, or do because people find it simultaneously forbidden and sacred

we’re here to feel it all and never stop learning. yet, we often stifen our curiosities out of insecurity or fear of offending others. we hush hush our inquisitiveness with the perception of a topic as taboo. what if these uncomfortable, difficult, and forbidden subjects were instead viewed as sacred? what if sharing authentic, imperfect, and real pieces of the human journey are essential in our connection to one another? taboo puts a microphone on the secrets whispered in the shadows and turns them into stories amplified for all.
