<p>Welcome to my therapy journal! 😂 My name is Faith.

Happy National Disease Day, apparently.

Sometimes I’m genuinely surprised by my ability to intuitively navigate certain social situations now. I had a very odd professional situation happen this week with a colleague of sorts. He tried to redirect through LinkedIn or my personal email because he knew it was a conflict of interest. It was also something I very much didn’t feel comfortable helping with in any material way. The first thing I did was contain it to my professional email. (He could have found my personal one. It’s on the...

In more “My French teacher is a little racist” news… He gave us a lesson on the difference between “immigrant” and “expat” tonight, including telling us that were all expats, not immigrants. 🙄

On a scale from 1 to 10, how USian is "it's like shooting fish in a barrel"? Would anyone outside of North America even recognize that one?

My phone keeps trying to get me to download shitty mobile games. I want to. They look kind of fun. But I know every mobile game ad is a bait and switch. You think you’re getting a puzzle game but is actually an “upgrade your city” game with 3 puzzles a day and most of that content hidden behind micro transactions. Fool me once…

I think the plan is to try and stabilize my workout over the course of the next month and get to a set I feel good about and which I can do regularly. Then, starting in September, I want to try and cut and lose a few kg. I don’t need to lose much but I do want to lean down some. My goal, I think, will be about 5kg before I start bulking again. I’m not trying to lose weight so much as replace fat with muscle. But before I do that I need to get my workout dialed in so I can stay consistent in th...

There are some days when I really fucking hate being in tech and there are some days when I love what I do. Some days, they're the same day.

Time for bed, I think. I’ve got a meeting in the morning so no late night for me. Also, I really need to stop pulling the late nights…

The big revelation this week is that I need to stop thinking about form primarily in terms of body position and start listening harder to my body and start paying attention to what muscles are being activated. I’ve had shit glue activation the last week or two and I’ve been feeling it more in my quads, which isn’t what I want. I don’t think I’m doing the wrong workouts, necessarily. I’m using the wrong muscles for it. I think if I spend a bit more time setting up the push to make sure I’m activ...

I'm tired of seeing videos of male PTs with women demonstrating. If your content is all videos of you, a man, showing women how to work out, that's misogynist as fuck and I don't want anything to do with you.

It's weird being an old fart trans lady. I still think of myself as a baby trans sometimes, or at most adolescent. And then I realize I'm not that much younger than the people I think of as my elders and then someone I think of as a peer will post about some anniversary and I'll realize it's been longer for me. Time is bullshit.

Being a miracle worker is fun right up until people start taking it for granted and thinking miracles are cheap and they can always just ask for another one.

I just made supper and napped at the same time. (I ordered DoorDash with delayed delivery.) This feels like a superpower and something I should probably do more often.

I'm pretty sure he was joking, but "so how about you do another 5 man-years worth of work by Christmas?" for some reason didn't hit my funny bone this morning.

Looks like I have about 2 years to decide if I ever want to see the house I grew up in again. My parents are finally retiring and selling the family farm. Lots of weird feelings about that one...

I sometimes forget how good cardio is. I just finished a 2 hour walk/hike and got in about 11k steps and 400-500 ft. of elevation. I feel amazing! I forget just how good it is sometimes to just go sweat it out for 2 hours.

I don’t know why this needs to be said but apparently it does, so… Never ask a victim to empathize with their abuser. Ever.
