Oh, the suffering we inflict upon ourselves with all the shoulding (and shaming) we get sucked into:
“I should go to college and get that degree. I should apply for that job. I should date or marry that person. I should start having kids now. I should be tougher and not be so emotional. I should know better. I should settle down....
We live in a culture that continues to demand more and more. We find ourselves spiraling in perpetual cycles of frenzied hustle and increased levels of pressure to get things done.

And, I can already hear all the skeptics shrieking at the thought of the all this woo-woo, mumble jumble. I assure you...
