A lot of people come to me for advice and help with different things, and I try and guide and assist them as best I can. My family sometimes jokes that I should start charging, but if it's something I can easily do, I feel why not? Shouldn't we all?

Why are you participating?

I think it's a pretty cool project and dispelling the myths surrounding labels is probably one of the most important things we can do as a society.
