I just did it again and it sucks. It doesn’t get easier, even though I think it will. Every time I say goodbye to my daughter, I’m sure it’ll be easier. Nope.

OMG, they think I’m a lawyer! I’ve walked around with that thought more times than I can count. Whether finishing a trial or arguing for equality in the workplace to legislatures — none of that matters.

I’m not a diver. I don’t dive into water. Not into the ocean or a pool. Definitely not off a cliff. But I’m about to do a whole different dive and it’s just as scary. It’s a dive into exposing myself to people I’d rather not.
