I'm reading whatever you put out. I enjoy your writing immensely. I'm not too into book reviews. I seldom feel the same about things as others but I would still read what you wrote, even that because you are smart, vulnerable and trying.

Bravo. And to address the people pleaser in there….I’m very pleased that you are doing the things that work for you. And I’m very pleased that sometimes we get to tag along vicariously. But even if I wasn’t pleased, I’d still be super proud… and I’d still be super inspired to contemplate thinking about considering how to deal with my own Gen X Pleaser self that seems to want me to be dependable, accomplished, perpetually exhausted, and haunted by by the “coulds ” and the “oughts” collected over the decades.

Oh Johnna, if only you lived closer so we could fully dissect those god awful "coulds" and "oughts" together! Imagine the stories we could come up with! It's all just exhausting, isn't it? And for what?
