Where your favorite blogs come alive
I want to become more comfortable speaking up for myself, having audacity, and just embrace the close mouth don't get fed mentality.
Three areas of my life that I need to speak up more, is school, friends, and to be honest just in general.
My fear of being perceived as a bitch is holding me back and making me not speak up and express my mind.
I also hate confrontation which is also why it's hard for me to speak up when something goes wrong.
I will say this, my dad is a very confrontational person. It's to the point that I don't even like going to places with him because I fear he is going to cause a scene. I know I just said that I wanted to have more audacity, but he takes it too far. He's literally a male Karen (still love him). I guess its about finding that balance and becoming assertive not aggressive because as another saying goes, you get further with honey than vinegar.
