December 9 … Pt. 2

Pain, hurt, embarrassment, any negative feeling can only hurt you if they are: Permanent Personal Pervasive If they are not all 3, you can get past it!

I’ve been trying wildly over the past few weeks to mentally make space for new beau, right? Because for the first time in a long time I really want to try. I want to be a peak performance partner.

Yesterday I thought work dude BLOCKED me on Snapchat which led me into a much needed introspection into security, relational needs, and dependency. I would like to share that a bit with you. I was proud of myself for standing face to face with what I thought was rejection and managing it better than IContinue reading “February 24”

Sitting on the airplane currently waiting to depart for NYC. I had a great morning of snappable things. A cat that was legit mean mugging me. Woven keychains at the airport that said “bad boy” and “bad girl.” I obviously bought both. And then of course had to snap my food buffet at the lounge.Continue reading “February 18”
