When the world isn't built for the way you think, feel, or create, simply existing becomes an endurance sport, and that exhaustion deserves to be named.

You do not need a life without stress; you need a system that can hold more of it without breaking.

Self-sabotage is not you failing yourself; it is a protective part of you doing the only job it knows how to do.
