@restlesslens I like that framing, “subversive” 🦾 My husband has told me he wants to keep working, so I’m trying to see that as a route that works well for him while it’s never really suited me, so it makes sense to try something different – to trust in our partnership as we both contribute different things.

I imagine it will be a long long journey to totally uninstall the self worth - productivity connection since we’re steeped in that culture continuously – though I feel like more and more people are recognizing it’s a harmful attitude and trying to reject it!
