I wear a mask alone in the car because I get ready to go to the next task so I can save time.

As a guy who's family dynamic turned out to be a matriarchy, I feel like I've become a natural at reverse-engineering through seeing how not to do things starting in early childhood. All my true friends are women now including my wife of 36 years, so learning more about how to add to the depth to relationships is a godsend to me. And while I'd like to have more male friends, I'm just open to having more healthy relationships & seeing what/who I attract. Thank you for such a thought-creating conversation, I love how empowering it makes me feel. There is subtle power in balanced Feminine energy, learning to live in Grace is a wonderful path. I'm very grateful to Dr. Stephanie as well as Jenny Blake for introducing me to her... and very grateful for the powerful women in my life.
