Hey Jules, it's been a minute. I sense from your silence that you want some space and while I'm unsure as to what I may have did or said, I will honor that. It's important to me that you know I am grateful for the fun we shared in the last month. I hope things won't be weird or awkward if we see each other in class.

Hi Tripp, while it was nice to match with you a couple days ago, we aren't on the same page. Even after asking you to take it down a notch, it continues to be too much too soon and that's not the pace I'm comfortable with. Thank you for taking an interest in me and I hope you find someon on the same wavelength.

Subject: Conference Speaker

Hi Siobhan,
Thanks for reaching out. I don't know Dr. Shuli but I am glad to know that my keynote in San Francisco resonated with folks all the way to the other coast!

While I'm flattered that my insights are recognized as invaluable, I'm disappointed that my time to share expertise is not valued with compensation. While I do make some accommodations volunteering my time, it's not sustainable for me as a one-woman business. I understand that this is likely not in your control but can you help me understand why there is no budget allocated to the speakers who make up the Annual Conference?

Thank you advance for your transparency.

❤️

Hey Rae, while it's nice that you think of me and always ask to hang out, it's hard to schedule something when you don't respond once dates are presented. I understand life gets busy but the asks are starting to feel disingenuous when the scheduling efforts are one-sided. From here on out, I'm going to follow your lead on locking down a time so that I know meeting up is something you really want to have happen.

Hi Harper, while I've been proud to witness your success down this new career path, I didn't expect to take on a mentee when we first met two years ago. I value my time and energy so from now on, will maintain only relationships that reciprocate and appreciate them. My last piece of advice to you is to recognize the two-way relationship that comes with mentorship. Mentors are generous with sharing the expertise they earned and that labor shouldn't be taken for granted. Good luck to you.

Hi Jilly, since your departure, the team has set personal boundaries to maintain only a professional relationship with you. So, if you drop by, we will engage with you as we do with all of our other customers but not entertain the favors you ask of us.

The most I’m comfortable doing is my research to find you a cat sitter and airport ride. I will forward the phone number and links to those shortly. These are excellent services for you to lean on from here on out.

Hope something from the list of options works out and you have a good vacation.
❤️

Hi Aunt Ellie. I understand the boundary you're making by not wanting to look at different perspectives and the ones we disagree on. I valued our relationship enough to lean into the discomfort with the hopes that we can have an honest and safe dialogue about things. But it seems that is not a step you want to take with me and I have to honor my own boundary of making time for those who genuinely want to take the time to understand my beliefs and values. If you change your mind, I'll be here but for now, please understand the space I need.
❤️

Hey Kartik. I haven't been responding to your texts because I'm still processing my disappointment from last Thursday's dinner with you. I felt disrespected and sexualized which is not something I expect from a friend. We have a few mutual friends so I know we'll run into each other in the future. I won't ignore you at those social gatherings but I'm also no longer interested in continuing a friendship. Take care.

Hi Kenji, I'm at a crossroads with us due to the mixed messages I'm getting from when I flew out to see you and your recent texts. I respect you and want to honor both of our time and energy by being direct: I like you and don't want us to be a casual hookup. Do you want to pursue a long distance relationship with me?

Hey Mom and Dad, I have some news that I am both thrilled and terrified to share with you. Thrilled because Imogene, as you know, is one of my dearest friends and got engaged. I have the honor of playing a large role in the wedding festivities. Terrified because I fear you may not accept that she got engaged to a woman and the wholehearted support I will give her as she starts this chapter with her new fiance. I'm not asking for your blessing or approval of my friendship with a le***an. As a devoted daughter, I am asking for you to respect who I value even if you may not understand why. The only reason you need to do so is that Imogene is important to me and I would like to think that I am important to you. I love you and I really hope that this can be a moment for celebration for all of us.

Hi Amira, I recognize that this is not a message you want to receive and yet, we both care about Jamal and this conversation needs to be had. He has been a dedicated provider to you for a while and as his partner now, he has agreed to let me step in to assist him as he struggles to enforce boundaries and is unable to communicate his feelings to you out of fear of letting you down. While I recognize your health challenges, he is not obligated to be your caregiver. Your mental, emotional, and financial dependence on Jamal undermines his ability to move forward in a secure relationship whether that be with me or any future partner. I know that you care about him and therefore, trust that you will understand why I will now be involved when you reach out to John and that over time he/we will be providing less of our resources to assist you which means needing to diversify your support network in order for Jamal to make room for other commitments and growth in his own life.

Hi Nikola, thanks for the lunch invite! Mookie's full group hangouts are more of my jam than 1-on-1's though so I'll see you at the movie night on Saturday and we can catch up then!
