Your writing is like riding a rollercoaster of relatability and joy—even if I’m not yet 59 and on the other side of the body positivity spectrum!
And this excerpt…*chef’s kiss*: “While I may have inherited Mommy’s gift of gab, her love of cinema, and her struggle with the human condition, I did not inherit her rack.
Though my mother often whispered in my ear, “a wuh-man’s heya is huh shining glaw-ry,” I knew the truth: massive hooters were my ticket to womanhood.”
!! I had the unflattering Halle Berry haircut that made a man in the grocery call me “young man” & I too was nicknamed Bean (but because I ate only beans for a few years lol). Someone told me in my 20s that I needed to eat more beans so my breasts would grow & I yelled “BULLSHIT!” 🤣 XO
I hit my flowy stage early - the opposite problem you had on top. Enjoy the freedom of this chapter, and I've always thought you are beautiful, inside and out.

Love this so much!!!! You are funny and descriptive. Such a great peek into you and your mother. I’m happy to have met you at the conference! More of this please! Our mothers would have been friends!
