We Can Do Hard Things
SELF CARE: How do we identify our real needs and finally get them met? (Best Of)

And then Every single girl in that room, I think there was about five, each took her eyes off the television and started looking where? You'll never guess. At each other. At each other's faces. Okay. So just pause right there. Pretend this is happening in slow motion because that's what it felt like.

Every single girl to find out if she inside herself is hungry starts looking at her friend's faces. Okay. And then in some kind of wild, silent mental telepathy, all the girls elect a spokes girl silently somehow, because this braided girl in the corner looks over at me and she says, no, thank you. We're fine. You know that, right? You know that we're fine. We will find ourselves to death, right?

We will starve to death. physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually, we will starve to death and say, we're fine. Because that's what the world tells us to say, to smile and say, we're fine. So in that moment, I thought, oh, okay, that's right. That's how I forgot how to know what I need and want when I learned how to please, right?

Because in our culture, boys are often taught to look inside themselves and In every moment of uncertainty. And speak their need. And little girls are taught in every moment of uncertainty, which what is life if not just one endless moment of uncertainty, right? To look outside themselves. Not for desire, not for need, but for permission. For consensus. Yes. Yes. Right? So...

That's, it feels so frustrating because it's like, oh, it starts so early. But what's hopeful to me is that since you can see that conditioning happening as a process of looking outside of ourselves, that has to mean that there's a way to deprogram ourselves from that. If it can be done to us, we can undo it.

It's so perfect. Think, wait, wait, just stop for a second. I know we need to move on, but like, think about that. Like put that scene in slow motion. Why does she get up from the table? She doesn't want to disturb her family. With her choking to death, right? She doesn't want to disturb her family. She doesn't want to- Be embarrassed. Be embarrassed, right? She doesn't want to cause a scene.

She doesn't want, she's looking weird. When you're choking, I imagine you don't look pretty, right? So she excuses herself to have her needs, whatever needs she has met in the bathroom alone. And then she dies there and doesn't cause a scene. Right. And then she abandons her family completely. Right. Right.
