It’s always “how was work?” Never “can you quit your job, I’ll support you.”

“I got divorced when my daughter was very young. So she’s kinda been my whole life since she was five. It’s just the two of us. I go to work, I come home, and she’s always there, maybe a little less now because she’s eighteen, but you know what I mean. She’s about to leave for college in Chicago. And it’s a little scary to send her off into the big world. But she’ll be finding her tribe. She’ll be learning about herself. I’m excited for her. And I’m excited for me, too. Because I think we both have a much bigger world ahead of us. I’ve been holding myself back a little bit. I’ve always wanted my daughter to know she’s my first priority, and that’s become a bit of an excuse. An excuse not to travel. An excuse to be overly selective in my relationships. An excuse to not pursue new opportunities. For the longest time, if I said ‘no,’ it meant I was being a good mother. But now if I say ‘no,’ it means I lack courage.”
