love this piece. especially " I had forgotten to put myself on my own guest list." those other "selves" within us are part of us for a reason i've discovered on my own journey. not to be shamed or hushed, but loved and often need to be thanked and offered a new assignment. (internal family systems is where i'm pulling some of this from, btw.) and i'm still working on my "stuff." oof. need to get out a piece of paper and make up a guest list with myself at the top!
Firstly, I’m so jealous. I’m obsessed with Emin; I am going to move to Margate and we’re going to be bff.
Secondly, cuz obv it’s less important 🙄 I’ve only recently come to terms with the voices those bullies have put in my head. It’s time they fully fucked off.
It is time they fully fucked off. Good luck with it. I too have a plan to move to Margate and befriend Tracey. Perhaps we could go in together on a flat?!

that's a great idea. Actually doing it. I'm going to do it too. x
This post made me think of Internal Family Systems too. Satya Robyn is writing about it all beautifully on here but I can’t link for some reason.
Will check her out. x
Coincidentally, she’s my interviewee this week x
“I had forgotten to put myself on my own guest list.” You are brilliant and this made me tear up xx

If it’s any comfort at all , I’m here cheering you on..
It very much is. Thank you. x
