over-please to under-deliver

finally got the answer

open up, only if you want it

It’s such a funny story. When we started living together, I HATED making customer service calls. I could feel the anxiety in my stomach. I HATED talking to people in general.

It began with an outright refusal by my partner make any of those calls.

He knew what we was doing. He could navigate himself through the deepest and most difficult conversations, and more so the heart of any human. His career had been built around it-

He knew what we was doing. 

So he made me do each. one.

I probably hated him for it at the time. I'm sure I did. 

But today, speaking, and the art of conversation has become one of my greatest strengths.

What I mean by this is, I’m not afraid to have any conversation. And even if I am, it sure as hell won’t stop me from having it.

This is Episode 128- a special one for Valentine’s Day. My partner always gave me the confidence I needed to speak, even though I was afraid to all my life. (it has also resulted in a lot of arguing with him and telling him things he doesn’t like to hear- but what are partners for? What's a best friend for?) I love you and I wish you the best day of your life. 

Go check out my partner T's podcast The Stop Sinking Show after. Have fun!

Meditate with me on this beautiful Sunday.
