Gosh, I’m so grateful for the moments of self awareness you describe here - when we stop and ask ourselves, did I shift the energy in this room? Wait, I did that?

“my guard was guarding” never heard it put that way but that is so accurate.

Thanks for persisting and writing through your feelings.

Clear is kind (thanks Brené Brown) and kind acts can get us clear.

So glad I read this, Samantha 🫶

Thanks so much for reading. I feel like showing up messy and confused is such a part of the human experience that we don’t always see reflected. It’s why I love the writing you do!

Writing is how I untangle from the messy! I know you get it. 🫶
