Original Advice
“DONT: Start hard talks hungry, tired, or distracted.”
Feed Yourself Before You Speak
Here’s the unglamorous truth: when you start hard talks on an empty tank, you don’t communicate—you forage. Hunger turns questions into accusations, fatigue turns nuance into noise, distraction turns care into chaos. Your claws come out before your words. You hear ghosts, not sentences. You swing at shadows and call it honesty. You make them pay the bill for your understaffed body.
Feed-first isn’t cute; it’s strategy. The Moon rules you, and the Moon rules tides, digestion, timing. When you’re fueled and rested, your crab shell fits; boundaries click. When you’re scattered, it rattles; everything sounds like danger. Preparation isn’t coddling, it’s accuracy. Eat. Drink. Put the phone face-down. Pick a time, not a mood. Short sentences. One truth at a time.
Cosmic Context
