Most people ask has your life changed? Nope, there is no difference in my life as every day during this fun time is just another Tuesday.

Why doesn’t it phase me? I tackled my dance with toxic masculinity hell, repaired the damage from male fragility, and came out on top.

Mother Nature gave me a special test during the Memorial Weekend. You know at the time when people today understand how bad system racism is.

A tornado hit my farm and we ran out to get the horses in the storm.

I got to watch a barn roof flip like a bird and see a large 12x4' piece come fly at me and I watched it thud 10' away.

Did it phase me … hell no.

So becoming a feminist raised my male warrior and female warrior, and so while most people get skittish …. me no.

Be well and remember you are awesome Carolyn Riker
