    I get a lot of men telling me quiet down, chill out, take a chill pill, I’m overreacting, calm down.

    My husband loves me because of how brash and loud I am <3

    And yes, pockets. I want deep pockets.

      I’m so glad to have surrounded myself with people that support and appreciate my strengths (and criticise but accept my weaknesses)! That made me overall better but also a bit too brazen and anti-diplomatic, I know I have to taper it off when I am not within my circles.

        There’s certainly a time and place for it! I work with a lot of conservatives. I’m still able to maintain good, copacetic working relationships with them despite my big mouth hahaha

          Congratulations! I strive to keep a mild smile and only talk about work if I know there is nothing else that I could nicely talk about
