It's coming from a place of I don't fucking have to be.
And everyone can fuck off.
I mean, it must have just taken forever for you to even grasp your identity outside of the world's perception.
You must still be on a journey of that.
That makes complete sense.
I was a little older than you when I was dragged into the global pylon for daring to have a fucking opinion.
But it is really destabilizing.
It's a choice you make that you then work on every single day.
Because I still have the flinch and the instinct to
to fawn and to falter and to people please.
But it's just a constant reminder that I am here for me.
I'm not here to answer to a bunch of people who can't meet the standard that they're fucking setting for me.
A great example is magazine editors.
and the heads of the fashion and beauty industries, they do not look the way they're telling all of us to look.
