Spiral 21: I wasn't insecure until they named it.

We all know what self-awareness can give us, but today I want to talk about what it can take away. The grief that shows up when you start noticing things you never had to worry about. The moving target of beauty standards. The way someone else’s comment can make a part of you feel strange, even if it never felt that way before.

What do you do with the parts of yourself that only started feeling unfamiliar after someone else noticed them?
