Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing this, Dana. Being a human in the current world is overwhelming by itself, not to mention all of the things that each of us is uniquely carrying. Society's focus on productivity doesn't help either. I always feel like I should be doing more and doing what I do better but at the same time, I am tired. I just want to live a "simple" life focused on what is most important to me.
Your words are always so truthful, raw, and emotional. Sending lots of love for everything you’ve given me and everyone who is part of the Forced Joy Club, but none of us want you to lose yourself, burn out, blow up your life! I know how difficult asking for help is, but I’m sure many of us OG’s would be willing to help. ❤️❤️❤️
This email is a boundary! Not answering a message is a boundary! You are rocking it. Barreling through it like the rest of us, and giving back a lot in the process. Go, you!
Thank you for your raw honesty and humanness, Dana…I so appreciate you sharing this because I relate to every single word (just different details). So, right now, my one true sentence is the exact same as yours…and I found your reflections and thoughts to be so helpful. ❤️❤️❤️
I keep thinking about having a "business of grief" group or some sort of support group for those of us tending to other's grief as well as our own. But then that's one more thing to do when we're all already at capacity ha. But maybe it's worth trying to make it happen so that we're not all wading out here alone.

You're so right. We are all carrying so much on top of being human in this current world. And I feel you on the "simple" life!

Ugh I can imagine how much this resonates with you right now. I'm hoping we both find a little more ease and peace 💛

I love this idea! Will you send me an email at dana@forcedjoyproject.com and we can get something scheduled 💛
