About a decade ago it occurred to me that I was in an on-again-off-again relationship — with my own voice. Maybe you can relate?

I don’t have children, but I have thought a lot about how growing up in my situation shaped me as an adult. The greatest way that it shaped me is it made me more independent, and strong-willed.
