Can I be real?
This politically correct world is a big bunch of bull shit.
Consciously or not, we minimize our thoughts, feelings, and perspectives in fear of offending others. We apologize for things that have nothing to do with us. We play small, weak, and unauthentic.
So stop.
You are not a shy, scared, abused “puppy,” so stop acting like one. Stop telling the world that that is who you are.
You are a powerful, strong, articulate, passionate woman. Your intent isn’t to offend. So stop worrying about it.
If you are going to be out in the real world. Then be real.
