The Know List

WE’RE MAKING A LIST. FEEL SEEN.

IT’S ABOUT ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING THAT’S NOT HOW WE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE.



I THOUGHT I WOULD…


  1. Be out mingling during weeknights - with friends, at an event, with a partner (lol) - without the thought of wanting to be braless on my sofa
  2. Stop following others (at least a little bit)
  3. Know how to apply more than just mascara
  4. Give fewer effs
  5. Get up and put on real pants (or a skirt) on weekdays. Fine, and shower.
  6. Be a well respected expert in my field
  7. Have 5x the responsibility and not be phased by it (perhaps the biggest of lols)
  8. Have a successful, supportive partner
  9. Eat a real dinner (but why)
  10. Have someone to take care of me when I’m sick
  11. (Finally) search for my own approval first
  12. Feel okay (well, way better than okay) not climbing a corporate ladder
  13. Be the first to get married (or at least not the last… wait, we won’t all get married?!)
  14. Have the: energy, budget, and ‘gang’ to grab after work drinks on a whim
  15. Be able to overcome feeling desperately alone even when I know deep down that that is truly a massive lie
  16. Understand what it means for mercury to be in retrograde (or we’d have stopped saying it 👀)
  17. … Know what to do
