Finding Worth: Laura and Holly on Self-Worth, Obsession, and Introversion
Maybe this is a memo to myself in the future, when I'm on the other side of it and I'm like what was going on, how could I have even thought that, um, when I'm in it and it feels like this, what I always know is that it feels like this right before some major growth spurt, right, like I always know, it gets really dark and really heavy and really dense and really confusing, right before there is some sort of shift and some sort of change.
