Vulnerability and Courage - Mui Thomas’ Story

Mui states that growing up in Hong Kong was a privilege whilst building her life with a life-altering skin condition called Harlequin-type ichthyosis. The condition thickens the skin over almost the entire body at birth. Mui has said that her condition is a privilege and a burden in equal measure. To have been afforded some incredible opportunities and experiences has been life-changing for her, but with all the good experiences, a number of struggles have arisen. Mui is now a professional rugby referee, a yoga instructor and a carer. “Some might think I am privileged and to some extent I am, but behind the smiles of my snaps, lies a vulnerability where taking hold of my mental health is a priority and a journey that I’m still discovering.” - Mui Thomas Tune in here to her amazing journey here, and check her out on Instagram. @mui_thomas92
