Can you bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul?
If not Now, when?
We will never be fully ready for whatever it is we are preparing for. Whether it’s the “right time” to have kids, write that book, quit that job, sign up for that stand-up gig, leave that unhealthy relationship—familial, romantic or platonic.
