When family doesn’t listen they can’t blame you for not telling them.

I raised them to be independent. I just never thought "independent" would mean a life that no longer has a chapter for me.

😂 "Wear something nice??" Shows up in a Chanel suit, Dior logo shoes, and a Birkin bag 🤣 The purse costs almost as much as the Assistant salary offered...

Excellent story, happy to finally hear a story that has a 'living' spouse who is completely rational, reasonable, and SUPPORTING of their spouse, for a change. I would like to hear many more along these features.

Thea, your story about the 'test' you were running on your family was so powerful. It makes me wonder: do you think your family would have eventually seen your worth if you had never revealed your secret, or was the 'ghost' identity the only way to finally force a change in how they saw you (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRfHDXxNtRg&t=2239">37:19</a>-<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRfHDXxNtRg&t=2283">38:03</a>)?"

Why people want to control someone in their thirties ,when they are happy doing what they do ,just for 'appearances' , is beyond me, in the UK, we call them 'snobs' , that's not an acronym , it's a nickname and it's not a complimentary nickname , it is very derogatory.<br>'You have until your coffee's cold' ,what a great line.
