My heart breaks for you reading this. I haven't written enough to elicit criticism (or many comments at that) but it is one of the reasons I moved away from social media - adult bullying at best and it baffles me how people can be so cruel. I admire the tough skin you talk about in the beginning of this piece, but also acknowledge when it goes too far and your humanness in the emotions that can accompany that. Thank you for sharing this. If you could share your podcast link I would love to check it out!
