Deep breaths. Food. Ground and center yourself. Sending virtual hugs over the aether.

Yes ma'am. I have partaken of a delicious broccoli and tuna pasta and written down many more Thoughts that have settled.

This has sort of been a therapy-breakthrough type of day, without the $200 price tag.

I've assembled enough angels to be able to call out all my career-related demons by name, and get both sides to look each other in the eye and shake hands. Sometimes they do look awfully alike... 🤔

(One of those angels is you, by the way! I won't forget your comments about being gentle with my reactions to things after what I went through with my last boss. This has given me a lot of clarity and calm)
