A belated THANK YOU for sharing Wild Story! (I am just coming out of a writing retreat.) Time is short, and I love that you’re abandoning the shoulds for the important stuff. ♥️

👏🏼I love this! My grandmother used to say, "Don't shoulda on yourself." Saying it aloud sounds like she cursed, which was not in her repertoire. It has stuck with me and I bring it back whenever my inside voice starts being lippy. - Kelly

Ha! I was about to write a comment about a prized quote from a past yoga teacher of mine who used to say “don’t should all over yourself”. Such wise women.
