Not all time is equal. How much energy something takes matters. There is power in choosing how much time you want to give to a thing. "How long will I choose for that thing to take?" is such a different approach to "How long will this take me?"

We are very aware these days that men get paid more, get more funding, and as a generalisation ask for so much more… assuming they will get it. Growing up, us women don't get taught to ask for that much. Instead we are encouraged to be helpful. We’re taught to be ‘good girls’. To be grateful for what we’ve got. To be careful what we ask for. To be cautious and humble. And when we do ask...
