I also have a personal question I wanted to ask, I left it inbox, when you have time please check it out.
Ahh this brought up a lot of thoughts and feelings for me, both as a strengths-based editor and as a (highly sensitive) author. Thanks for outlining your perspective so clearly, Gail. (Now I'm daydreaming about having a really meaty conversation with you about this stuff some day...I'll just plant that seed here and tiptoe away! Sending hugs!)

This is so bloody helpful, Gail - thank you!!!!
