If you’re a regular reader here or on my Instagram page, you know I like to make up words. “Trumpectomy” and “Back-to-normaling,” for example. Every Monday I’ll feature a new word here for open minds. Any suggestions? Would love those, too.
Badassification
Today’s made-up word is badassification (n): the act of becoming a badass by recognizing one’s own power to live beyond the expectations and constraints of others.


Thoughts? Suggestions? Let me know in the comments.
All images are my own.

Badassification – How do you come up with this? You are truly gifted and talented!! I will add that Badassification may be a direct result from menopause. (or maybe a high conflict divorce?) Truly an honor to receive 🙂

Thank you so much, Ruth! I think you may be on to something with the menopause connection. (And contentious divorce too.)

By the way Natalie, I saw a car with the “honk if you need to poop” bumper sticker the other day and completely held up traffic to take a picture of it! 🙂

We could all use some badassification from time to time. You didn’t invent the word for Zelensky, but it fits.
