extra, extra

I have gone through life desperately wanting everyone to like me and for everything to be “perfect.”  I wanted some sort of master plan or perfect timeline for life that I could meticulously follow.

Too loud 

Too much 

Too picky 

A perfectionist  

A people pleaser


Extra

I am extra, life is vivid and complex, and timelines and plans are now what I do best.

Cheers,

Helen Elyse Row
