“...behavior that constantly jumped the line between girls-just-wanna-have-fun and self-destructive self-medicating... The eggshells weren't on the ground; they were duct-taped to the soles of my shoes. I could never step lightly enough or run fast enough to get away from the cracking, so I made everything around me so loud that it drowned out the sound.”

“I am responsible for holding you accountable in a respectful and productive way. I’m not responsible for your emotional reaction to that accountability”
― Brené Brown, Atlas of the Heart: Mapping Meaningful Connection and the Language of Human Experience

“But those who are able to distinguish between a range of various emotions “do much, much better at managing the ups and downs of ordinary existence than those who see everything in black and white.”
