  • Shooting out awesome

    First time listening. Really love the show. Except I think there’s a time for everything and as a compulsive people pleaser I’ve actually felt a sense of liberation by becoming somewhat of a grumpy person like I’m allowed to be that way finally. There’s a time for everything type attitude and it’s your time to be happy go lucky but rn it’s my time to be the grouch I was never allowed to be. Looking forward to more listens. :)
