The Inconvenient Truth
the moment I stopped being Convenient Monica.
Recently, I received an email from an ex-husband.
He said, since he hadn’t heard from me on his birthday, something must be wrong and I should call him.
We’ve been divorced for twenty years.
Now how weird is that?
Except… I know how it happened.
The old Monica—the one before she reclaimed, reinvented, and reignited her relationship with her soul—would’ve done exactly what he asked.
Not because I wanted to.
Because I didn’t even know I had a choice.
It was that deep. The programming, the performance, the pressure to be nice.
I deleted the email.
That was my reply.

This essay is about the moment I stopped being Convenient Monica.
About what I learned when I chose myself over someone else’s comfort—and what happened to my nervous system when I finally stopped negotiating with myself to stay small.
