"Putting on your own oxygen mask doesn’t mean you’re stealing one from someone else — it means you’re not creating an unnecessary crisis that requires someone else to carry you off the plane."
I really love these ideas, Ryan! And the way you acknowledge how hard this can be for anyone who was raised to think they should just go with the flow and not cause trouble, even good trouble.
Thank you for modeling the important work of developing your own "f#@$s framework"! And for reminding folks that even if it sounds cliche, many forms of self-care aren't selfish. They're what makes our care for others sustainable.
It’s wild how much of a pleaser I am when I really stop to think about this. I’m going to ponder and make a list of f#c$ to consider. Also, did you know I’m now working with Leslie Ford and she has a book coming out?! What a small and wonderful world this is.

That means so much to me to hear, Heidi. May we use these monthly rituals to stir up some good trouble!
Great read, and thanks for the shout-out!
