Haha, I love this, Austin! I feel like a total rock star when I'm teaching art classes, connecting with my students and having great conversations. Then my adult kids, who each live a state or two away, will come for a visit and either be giving me sh*t about not having any food in the house, or expecting to have to fend for themselves for 4 days. I am terrible at feeding people. 😬
Thank you so much for sharing. I feel like a superstar when I am explaining grant writing/fund development. I feel very awkward doing line dances in public. I can mostly catch a beat, but I really have to think when I am doing anything besides the electric slide:).
I feel like a superstar when my bra and undies match, it’s been like that since college! But then I absolutely run into a doorknob and crash back to earth. Jesus must know that we would light this planet on FIRE if we were all confident, all the time!
I wear a 40H bra, and I prefer Adore Me for matching sets. It was much easier when I wore a smaller size, but I've made it a priority again over the last few years because it gives me confidence to know I'm 'cute on the inside'.
That skirt was SO cute btw! Loved the sneakers with it too. When I stay calm and present when someone i care about needs to vent or tell me hard mees and just needs me to listen and not meet their freak-out energy level, I leave that conversation feeling like a superstar listener/friend, like dang I am peaceful AF (LOL!)...but on days when my purse strap gets caught on the door handle and yanks me back on the way to my car, then I spill coffee on my shoe and proceed to lose my sh**, well, that brings me down to earth really quick! Thanks for showing us the polished and the awkward ❤️
I feel like a Rockstar when I'm doing crafts with my 2 and half year old cousin but I regularly bump into corners in my apartment when I'm not concentrating or in a hurry.
Austin I love all the details in your story. Thanks for being so transparent. I too am lazy about shaving my legs. It's a lot of work.
Greetings this Holy and Good Friday. I soar when teaching Bible before groups. Otherwise I am a bit awkward in public. I must rely on the scripts that I have learned to carry in my head.
Austin, what an amazing share. Thank you for giving voice to those of us maneuvering through the awkwardness. The older I get, the more comfortable I become with my awkward choreography through life. Letting go of expectations and attachments allows me to be present and mindful. It's truly beautiful. So glad to read that you have a creative outlet of comfort. Peace.
Thank you so much!! I also stopped shaving and now I’m feeling awkward about the summer and skirts and my leg hair. You are giving me courage!! I’m sooooo glad you shared that. Also I’m similar, when I’m teaching or giving a talk in front of people for work I’m chill. One on one or talking about non-work stuff I’m a total weirdo :) Feels good to know we are not alone.
I want to confess that if I think the hair will be obvious, I just shift to maxi skirts. But I definitely have friends who don’t shave and wear whatever they want, when they want. I aspire!

Confession: I don’t think I’ve ever had matching undies! New goal for 40 unlocked! 💜

I find that I am always being stopped by my pockets getting hooked on something! How am I the only person whose pockets hate them? lol
😂our clothes and bags are out to get us!
*news (not mees)
