The friendships will be better for you anyway.... Dating is the worst.

Yes absolutely! It's ridiculous how the WNBA owners pay the players peanuts. They don't even get a cut of jersey sales! 😡 Owners are beyond greedy and players & fans suffer.

BTW I'm observing & thinking about all of this in relation to my own kids. They are only 5 & 8 now but already they have exposure to/expect things that I never had growing up. I want LM & I to be mindful that we have to set them up to be grateful for what they've been given but also work hard.

I knew too many kids who had Mom & Dad hand them cars that they kept crashing, or flunked multiple classes that Mom & Dad kept paying tuition for.

I never had that luxury. EVER. I made sure my butt was out of school in 4 semesters cause that's all I could get $$$ for!

I understand being able financially to support your kids so they don't have to struggle like you did...but the "struggle" also creates work ethic and also gratitude for the things that you have.

When you are handed everything & don't work for it...you don't value it.

Thank you friend - you're absolutely right about me needing to think about the things that go into making me...

Last week my therapist asked me "who are you?" and I struggled to answer! I don't want to lead with wife, mom or my job...so I just said "I'm Jareesa & that's a lot of things" which is true but I wish I had a better way to answer that question right now....

I'm going through this right now and it's a big struggle for me. I thought I dealt with it after I left the lab 13yrs ago but now that I'm considering leaving corporate all together, it's resurfaced.
