Love this piece Alana, so beautifully written. Especially your focus on learning from our experiences, taking responsibility for our own lives, and questioning why we ignored the red flags. This feels like a big piece for so many women I talk to. We are often so focused on finding love that we bend ourselves into all kinds of unhealthy shapes to find and keep it!
Exactly! I have 3 teenage daughters and as they head off on a date I always say - remember this is not about you trying to get them to like you.. that has nothing to do with you. This is for you to see if you like them!
