“These are tall promises, Megan.”

Yep, I know. I don’t fuck around with words or with actions.

The reason you’re afraid to tell your boss to stop belittling you in front of your coworkers is because you have deep rooted fears that you haven’t confronted that work inside, in the shadows, to keep you from growing. It’s the same reason you can’t tell your partner what you really like in bed, why you feel ashamed loving certain things that you love, and why certain words can spin you into a depression.
