Hey, scaredy cat.
This book is for you, the person who is scared to be fully alive, asking for what you want, going for the things that matter to you – screw the consequences.
This for all of you tired of being the good girl, the one who smiles to hide the clenched jaw, laughs off awkward moments, and takes what the world dishes out because you just don’t know how to ask for something different.
This is for those of you who have insomnia or grit your teeth in your sleep because you stuff your words down all day long. This is for those who fake orgasms because asking for what you want is too hard and showing it is even harder.
This is for all of you agree to do whatever someone else wants to do – dinner, entertainment, vacations, religion, political affiliation, lifestyle – because if you say what you really want you think you might lose your lover, spouse, friend, or family member.
The idea of that excites and terrifies you at the same time.
This is for all of you who apologize for things you don’t even do to keep the peace, clear the air, and maintain a balance.
This is for all of you choking on your dreams because you won’t let them out of your mouth.
You are scared because you are using someone else’s voice, another person’s words, and living another woman’s life.
This isn’t you, and it never has been. You’ve been self-consciously adjusting this outer image, adding blister pads when it rubs the wrong way, learning to live with the constant irritation and resulting rash.
You think no one sees the real you, and you’re right. You never give them the chance.
What would happen if you threw off the ill-fitting skin of that other person to showcase the delicious, full-grown, vibrant woman underneath?
Would it change your life?
