Fabulous article on mindset and making this happen by giving yourself permission to do something and then choosing a healthier option. I've told my "inner fuck you" to fuck off a while ago. it takes longer for others to really get it. A turn of a phrase, like your examples, are a perfect example. We are so programmed for negativity that we really come to expect it. But the trick is to, what I call, fight gravity and all the shit that pulls you down.

I'm so thrilled to find your post! I'm a new follower now and looking forward to seeing what else you have to say. All best! :)
