Oh my goodness! This is my WHOLE heart and life philosophy since 7th grade when we moved across the country and I went to a new school. No more being bullied in the playground and running home from school. Resist through joy and kindness, through bears and dolls, through yarn collections and striking up a conversation with pretty much everyone. I love you.
I read one of Robbins’s other book (the high-five one) and it was helpfulish. This new one appears to have a bit of a muddy origin https://sagejustice.substack.com/p/mel-robbins-and-plagiarism
Oh dear! I had no idea. I went to that page and the link to her book--which I thought I might buy because now I feel bad--was broken.
Wonderful. Thank you.
Thank you for reading!

Oh, Jeni, this is so you! Of course you resisted bullying with joy and kindness, bears and dolls. I love you right back.
Good one. I’ve been talking/writing about this kind of resistance lately. Kind of like Gandalf.
I think it's really important to remember this kind of resistance! Thanks for reading and commenting.
