Beautiful piece Becky. Reflecting on all the wonderful conversations I have shared with you as I read this essay. Your work is worth your whole heart and in meeting you I can say I have already seen glimpses of the pain transformed to beauty. Appreciate you bringing this to the page.
"glimpses of the pain transformed to beauty" - this is so wonderfully put. Thanks for always encouraging me to write from the heart and to lean into the soul, as you've said in our earlier chats this year.
Becky, wow. You took our seed of a conversation and turned it into something soaring. I love how this essay turned out 🤍 Amazing job!!
GRACE 🤍 thanks for listening to my idea and encouraging me to write it! This one definitely needed a little push but I'm so happy this is out there.
This was a lovely essay Becky. So impressive you took a difficult experience and transformed it into something beautiful.
Especially loved “I’m even writing this essay, marking this moment of processing, of purging, of patience.”
So so good :)
AHH thanks so much Tommy. You're always so kind with your words. And I'm really proud of that sentence so I'm glad you picked that up, too!

This turned out excellent!
"I am wholeheartedly accepting more growing pains, gnawing memories, and garish truths." -> so good!
Thanks so much Lavinia! This piece really came together after you helped talk me through some ideas ❤️
