jiujensu🇵🇸<p>4/16<br />I left the job to stay home with my two toddlers. I&#39;m grateful that was even an option - I know many *have* to work. And not working has given me the chance to pursue my other interests - for example, earn a black belt in jiu-jitsu, which I would&#39;ve wanted to do if I worked but maybe wouldn&#39;t have had the time. </p><p><a href="https://mas.to/tags/jiujitsu" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>jiujitsu</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/bjj" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>bjj</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/blackbeltwomen" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>blackbeltwomen</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>science</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/religioustrauma" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>religioustrauma</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/womeninstem" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>womeninstem</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/mentor" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>mentor</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/patriarchy" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>patriarchy</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/vetschool" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>vetschool</span></a></p>
jiujensu🇵🇸<p>3/16<br />Now, I have some thoughts, but it&#39;s not a horror story by any means. My &quot;alternate career path&quot; was fine. I worked in a lab, worked with awesome people I feel bad I&#39;ve lost touch with, worked on really interesting scientific projects, became proficient in techniques I&#39;m still proud of even though I don&#39;t do that anymore.

jiujensu🇵🇸<p>...because they want to?</p><p>6/6 But bottom line- I do marital arts for fun and a bit of fitness. It doesn&#39;t mean I&#39;m not serious, focused and technical! I just want to do this as long as i can and bring as many along as want to come along. Compete! Don&#39;t compete!

jiujensu🇵🇸<p>1/6 I&#39;m a black belt and have never competed. It&#39;s something I feel self-conscious about on occasion. I have this sneaking suspicion sometimes that not competing hurts my credibility as a black belt or meant wearing previous belts I&#39;m not as good as others of my rank. We shouldn&#39;t feel that way though!</p><p>So why do I feel this way? <br /><a href="https://mas.to/tags/bjjwomen" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>bjjwomen</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/bjj" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>bjj</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/grappling" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>grappling</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/jiujitsu" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>jiujitsu</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/bjjblackbelt" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>bjjblackbelt</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/bjjblackbelt" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>bjjblackbelt</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/jiujitsulife" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>jiujitsulife</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/blackbeltwomen" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>blackbeltwomen</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/grappling" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>grappling</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/confidence" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>confidence</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/selfdoubt" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>selfdoubt</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/womensgrappling" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>womensgrappling</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/competition" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>competition</span></a></p>
jiujensu🇵🇸<p>5/5 In the same way, it&#39;s not shameful to consider others in the words you use or jokes you tell. (Especially if you then expect them to be comfortable in a sport like jiu-jitsu!) Like with tapping out and restarting in jiu-jitsu, in life you can start over, change it up, try to handle it better immediately.</p><p><a href="https://mas.to/tags/jiujitsu" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>jiujitsu</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/blackbeltwomen" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>blackbeltwomen</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/bjjwomen" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>bjjwomen</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/jiujitsulife" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>jiujitsulife</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/selfdefense" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>selfdefense</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/safespace" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>safespace</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/politicallycorrect" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>politicallycorrect</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/encouragement" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>encouragement</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/bjj" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>bjj</span></a></p>
jiujensu🇵🇸<p>4/5 My hope is that wherever you find me, I will do everything in my power to contribute to a place being safe. Generally being considerate of others and listening and changing when I&#39;ve done something offensive are top priorities. We talk about humility in jiu-jitsu. Leave your ego at the door. Tapping doesn&#39;t mean you&#39;ve lost. Don&#39;t try to win practice. <br /><a href="https://mas.to/tags/jiujitsu" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>jiujitsu</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/blackbeltwomen" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>blackbeltwomen</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/bjjwomen" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>bjjwomen</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/jiujitsulife" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>jiujitsulife</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/selfdefense" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>selfdefense</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/safespace" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>safespace</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/politicallycorrect" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>politicallycorrect</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/misogyny" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>misogyny</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/encouragement" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>encouragement</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/bjj" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>bjj</span></a></p>
jiujensu🇵🇸<p>1/5 This is an absolutely ridiculous opinion - that safe spaces are weak - especially with <a href="https://mas.to/tags/bjj" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>bjj</span></a> in the username. In this sport, we&#39;re trusting each other not to destroy our joints and otherwise harm us. We&#39;re in close quarters with people in a way that other sports don&#39;t usually allow.
