23 Questions

Every woman should ask herself in 2023
23 Questions

Here’s what these crucial questions have in common: Asking them changes everything. In the pages that follow, we explore the ways in which grappling with life’s big and little) questions can push you toward new possibilities, reveal your deepest truths, and put you on the path to your right life—which, as you'll discover, is yours for the asking.

1 WHO DOI YELL AT IN THE QUIET OF MY HEAD?

Ah, inner rage. It feels cathartic for a little while, especially when you’re making complex but incredibly insightful points with lots of subpoints and bullets and footnotes. But after a while, the process blackens the mind. What would happen if you dealt with your anger beyond the silent borders of your brain? This doesn’t necessarily require a confrontation with the object of your fury. It means figuring out why you’re so angry with them and why you feel you can’t bring it up. Note: This directive applies even if the person you're yelling at is yourself.

2. What is the big risk, and what is the tiny risk?

So you want to start your own company. The big risk is what happens if you lose everything that risk will appear as a woman in hot pants screaming through your brain with her hair on fire, distracting you from the tiny risk you haven't thought of. For example, what if you do make enough money...but have to work 22 hours a day and never go out on a date until you retire at 83?

WHAT'S THE ONE THING NOBODY KNOWS ABOUT ME?

Which should probably be followed by: Why does nobody know?

4. DO I HAVE ONE TINY, EASY, UPLIFTING THING. THAT DOESN'T INVOLVE CONSUMPTION?

Something along the lines of singing the entire Top 40 from 1993 in the car as you drive on a highway. Or playing pinball in a dumpy bar. Or feeding the fat but still hungry-looking squirrels in your yard each morning.

The Summer I TOOK My Mom "HOME"

Whenever I tell people about the Last Trip Home I took to Italy with my 87-year-old mother and my older son last summer, everyone has the same response (\"Awwww...\"), which makes me feel like a fraud because I know they're imagining some gauzy scene. And to be fair, I'd tried to plan it that way.
