That question alone shows you are woman of depth - open and willing to hear what people think. That is courage in if itself. I know many women who are "stuck in their old way of thinking" and not open to perhaps being vulnerable - a generational thing i guess. Thanks for being clear aboyt where you stand with social media - let's keep it real nit performative.

Thank you for seeing that. Truly.

That question felt simple when I posted it, but the answers showed me how much courage it takes to be willing to be seen through someone else’s eyes.

And yes, I agree with you about the generational piece. So many of us were taught to keep it together, keep it quiet, and keep moving. But at this point in my life, I don’t have the energy for performative anything.

Real is where the healing is. Real is where the courage is. And real is where I believe women finally get to breathe and be free.
