A hundred percent. And this is kind of like in your expertise as well, I'm sure, especially with the confidence building, you know, but a lot of it is that story.

Well, there's a story that's attached to the reason why you're not doing something. And I think you need to tell a different story. You need to say, well, maybe, you know what, maybe I'm going to go and be my best self and I'm going to communicate thoroughly. And if somebody doesn't want to communicate that thoroughly, then maybe that's not for me.

There's a more empowering way to deal with this as opposed to just being so fearful all the time. You can't kind of scare a guy that likes you away because you communicate. I don't see that ever happening.
