Ugh. This is SO real. It is so so hard to untangle our value from earning money and reimagining what it means to be productive. Also sometimes lunchtime TV is essential haha. I always appreciate your thoughts on how you're wading through the tough places friend!
I’m monumentally proud of you Jordan! Your writing is exquisite and meaningful. I love you my sweet girl 💕
Love you too momma!
You 👏 are 👏 a 👏 full 👏 time 👏 writer! I just love the way you continue to name the ache, peel back the layers, and keep digging into the questions.
Also that mention of repenting time spent with Gilmore Girls in your poem? GOLD.
We are all Gilmore Girls! 🫶🫶
I fear I suffer from the same affliction as you. Love the poem <3
are we all just always downplaying our work forever and ever?
Quite possibly! I think we were conditioned this way. To work and work and work and always be productive. Ugh it’s exhausting
It really is 😭 but here we are writing our poems in defiance

It’s so true! Remaining what productive means, but also why we value it so highly?? It’s a vicious cycle.
