Interviewer: What’s the hardest thing about being you?

Interviewee: Mmmm. Staying balanced. [laughs] Making sure that I’m meeting my own needs and that nobody else’s needs that I care about are being neglected either. It’s a constant lesson and struggle for me, to make sure that I’m not going too far in the people pleasing direction, and that I’m not going too far in the inward, internal direction either. I think that’s probably the hardest thing.

And I guess probably navigating the level of trauma that I’ve experienced in my life and still being like relatively well adjusted. [laughs]
