Meaning

This reads as an argument for inner responsibility. It can be taken to mean that humiliation is often less about other people’s power and more about the standards we accept for ourselves. In a moment of comparison at work or online, it lands as a quiet push to stop handing over your worth to someone else’s opinion.
