"Women need to support one another by being honest
about the compromises we make and by speaking openly about
the help we require from our partners and other support systems."
Tiffany Dufu
In our own darkness, we view others in a bright light of perfection. We create stories of how easy it is for them, as we struggle along the way. If we are uncertain or needing additional help, we set ourselves up for lesser than performance by nor asking for assistance.
No matter what we endeavor to accomplish as our purpose, success is not perfect. There have been circumstances impairing us and repercussions in our private family lives. Our passion drives us through our troubling times, but there is blood, sweat, and tears.
Communication is vital in our support systems. We can find comfort by being honest and voicing how difficult it is for us. When mentors disclose all of the compromises they have made to get where they are, we can quit pressuring our selves for rigid performance. We can gain knowledge by being truthful and by listening to truth tellers.
