"What I really wanted to do was figure out how to be a woman and I went looking for that in a young girl," explains Meghan Flaherty author of Tango Lessons: A Memoir. "I thought, if only [my 16 year old self] had made different choices, she would have been a real rockstar. I couldn’t see the potential in myself at the time but I could see the last time I felt I had that much potential was in high school, in tango, and it was this romantic thing. And I was like, right, if I could just put on an outfit like that and move like that and be free like that, then, I’ll be okay. The irony is, the thing I had to finally confront was exactly who and where I was, not who I had been."Joining Chelsea 18 minutes in, Meghan reflects on her drive to overcome "all the issues" in hopes of jettisoning herself from her traumatic past and living as a normal woman in the world. Thankfully, Meghan amounted to much more than normal.
