There's so much realness in this post. I definitely have these battles in my head on a regular basis.

Keep writing, the world needs your words.

I love the quote: "Write what you know, what you fear, and what you have been willing to speak about. Be willing to split open."

Kudos to you for moving forward even if you're unsure of where you're are going.

Great read and thank you for being vulnerable. Getting started is half the battle. You’ll start to gain some momentum and hit your stride in no time!

I pushed off starting to write for about 2 years, paralyzed by the thought of what others would think or if my opinions mattered.

Keep going 😁

Thank YOU for reading! I resonate with the paralyzing thinking and the fear that comes with it. Something my rollerskating teacher told me was that one does not have to be brave to do the thing that excites them. So, do it afraid ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
