Things not going how you expected? Nobody stepping up in the wedding party. The bridal shower doesn’t look like it’s happening. The group chat is silent. And now you’re thinking about planning your own bachelorette — but worried it’ll look a little gift grabby.
You’re sitting there waiting — to be asked, to be celebrated, to be chosen.
The story you’re telling yourself when people don’t show up (and why it’s probably not true). The question nobody’s asking: why would you deprive yourself of something you want just because nobody’s done it? And the one thing that has to happen before the creativity kicks in — the decision.
Because women are scrappy. When we decide something’s happening, we figure it the fuck out.
