YES! Moments:
“When someone has already decided what they want to believe about you, usually no amount of explaining changes it.”
“Every time you shrink, justify or self-edit in a response to being misunderstood you actually make it so much harder for anyone, even the right people, to know who you really are.”
“If someone’s going to misunderstand you, let them at least misunderstand the truth. Let it be your actual clarity that they are walking away from, not a people pleasing cover act.”
“If you’re going to live with integrity, sometimes you have to let people misread you and still stand firm in your truth.”
“What if you decided, you can misunderstand me, but you won’t be confused about who I am to you.”
