Speech Fears to Parliament Cheers
Listen to Podcast Read Transcript When I was a kid, I used to hate public speaking. In the school system I grew up in, we would have to do a speech every year. I used to be so scared of saying my speech because I wasn’t confident in what I had written — I didn’t believe that I was a good student, that I was smart. I was scared for other students, for my classmates and my teacher to hear my crappy work basically and then also I just didn’t have a lot of friends growing up - I was bullied a lot. I didn’t come from a great home life. So that doesn’t really create a space where you can be confident in yourself and feel good around others. I always felt like people were judging me and, you know, to a point, that was my reality, it was happening with bullying and stuff. I dreaded speech time and my speeches would always be so bad, not creative, not well researched. I just didn’t really understand the point of speeches and the art of writing. When you’re always in like fight or flight, survival mode it’s hard to let your creativity show and know just how to tap into your own mind and world.

Assuming this is the case, then, at that point, you might be a contemplative person, somebody who tracks down comfort and strength in the calmer snapshots of life.

Early Christmas Decorating
I kicked off the holiday season (October 31st), with Covid-19 and Strep Throat. Excessive sinus issues had me on the couch, half sitting-half reclining just to sleep. One night, I was so weak and bereft of sleep that I wept non-stop thinking I would be dead before morning.

Tackling the Sea of Life
My life at the moment is like I've been dropped in the middle of the ocean. I've been splashing and flailing, trying desperately to grab on to any trash or sticks drifting by, for support, but everything just sinks beneath me. I'm suppose to keep going. I'm suppose to push forward through all the storms, through all the obstacles. It's my job as a mother and daughter, as a woman to carry all the weight and help all those who need it. I have to do better. I have to be better.
