My participating in gossip reminds me a bit of eating too many cupcakes. It sure seems like a fun and enjoyable activity until you feel like crap later.

I love the lens of seeing the impulse to gossip as one to connect. Can we (can I 😂) notice *that* desire/yearning in the gap before diving in, and make a different choice that enhances connection? Thanks for this!

Thank you for this! I’ve been noticing myself sharing a bit of salacious gossip that has come to my attention and most every time I do, afterward I find myself feeling icky that I shared it and asking myself why I chose to share it. Usually there is no good reason. 🤦🏾‍♀️ On another note, have you listened to the podcast Normal Gossip? It is one of my favorites. :)
