As a 63 year old I can so relate to my earlier years like this, except one day someone said I was a "trooper." Slowly I began to understand what that meant and a little voice inside of me kept saying "I don't want to be everyone's trooper girl." I don't have to go along to get along. It's taken forever to just "be." 2020 ignited that fire for many of us. It wasn't that I wasn't self preserving and constantly creative - I just didn't have a whole and complete voice.
Thank you so much for sharing your own experience Deborah! I'm so glad this post resonated with you. You are right, 2020 really was a transformative year for many of us.
I absolutely love this post. So spot on! I am 55 and dating again and finally able to state my needs and wants. Quite frankly, it’s terrifying. But I can see how this is going to save me years of my life! Thank you for writing this. ❤️
I’m so glad you can relate Suzy! Good for you for putting yourself out there and dating again... it can be so overwhelming at times, but showing up as fully yourself must feel incredible! Keep me updated xo
