Donna, you’re AMAZING! my heart searches the world for straight shooters and finds so few. You’ve inspired me to publish my embarrassing stories. Thank you, keep yours coming!

Such kind words, Paige! 🙏🎉🙏

Thank you so much. It never occurred to me that my uglies would inspire anyone to open up. I am so grateful.

So, speak your truth forward 💜

Emotional hangover is real. I have never put words to it but some days after something comes up I spend more days recovering my energy. It gets better but I like the words to put to what is happening.

I felt the same way, Linda. After three weeks of sharing ugly memories, I kept wanting to stay in bed longer and cover my head with a pillow, but I wanted to remain deeply connected and continue feeling love coming back to me 💜

Writing this way is far healthier than keeping memory files behind a mental wall. 🤗
