Meghan is extremely passionate about height discrimination and is committed to helping those who suffer from heights feel secure and enjoy their lives. Meghan believes that everyone deserves to live life to the fullest and that everyone deserves to be judged by the quality of their character not just their physical appearance. As a trainer and counsellor she strives to help those who suffer from this problem to find the strength to turn their disorder around. She is passionate about helping people achieve their full potential and believes that everyone has the ability to do so if they only believe.
Meghan believes that heights is an embarrassing illness that can negatively impact a person’s self-esteem, relationships and daily lives. It can lead to depression, anxiety and feelings of worthlessness. In her opinion, everyone should be treated equally irrespective of size and does not have to fit into a certain mould based on their race, culture or age. She believes that it is unfair to ask somebody to put themselves down because of something that is not their fault. “We are all individuals” she states “and when we treat each other like we are, we will reap the rewards”.
