You have to love failing at it. If you don’t love failing at it, you’ll never succeed at it.

Sometimes we conflate oversharing with, “I’m going to be authentic, and I’m going to set a boundary, and I’m going to tell them how I feel, and I’m going to be honest,” that’s not always healthy communication. We say restrain a pen and tongue. Like, if you’re my problem, I’m not going to come to you and expect you have the solution.

When you pray for patience, God doesn’t give you patience. He gives you opportunities to be patient.
— Taylor Tomlinson | Ep #51: TAYLOR TOMLINSON | Good For You Podcast with Whitney Cummings
We think if we’re just more clear and direct, the other person’s childhood will change. […] It just doesn’t work that way. […] Just because you’re being clear with the person, and direct and mature, doesn’t mean the other person has the mental equipment to receive what you’re saying.
— Whitney Cummings | Ep #51: TAYLOR TOMLINSON | Good For You Podcast with Whitney Cummings
Our self-awareness hasn’t fixed us, so why would it fix someone else.
— Taylor Tomlinson | Ep #51: TAYLOR TOMLINSON | Good For You Podcast with Whitney Cummings
The more you say, the more shame you’re going to feel later that it didn’t work, and that is what erodes your self-esteem and your self-worth. ‘I just said all this stuff, and it didn’t work, now I’m embarrassed, now I failed.’

— Leti
