OK, this is your best post so far in this poster's opinion. Very much love the personal story lead in to what is truly universal advice to be shared by all. I think there is the seed of a book in this post. Favorite passage about Agency: By acknowledging the feeling in you, you don’t give it as much power. It’s just a feeling. Might be uncomfortable, but that is not a reason to not feel it. It’s just a feeling! And with the AWARENESS of the feeling you now have agency -- you can then make a conscious choice about how you want to handle the feeling and thus, give it the space it needs to move through you. Very good stuff.
Very well said and a fantastic read. I especially loved how your own experiences weived so perfectly into the topic!
