It can be difficult to move with precision without adequate think time. We teach this to our babies, but we forget to offer it to ourselves and each other.
Those lines mean so much to me because they’re about owning what’s been weaponized against us. When someone calls us crazy or angry, leaning into it can feel like reclaiming power—like saying: You thought this was a weakness? Watch what I can do with it.
