Favorite Cuddle Party Rule: Rule #6 – You are encouraged to change your mind

What I got out of Cuddle Party personally: Asking for what we want, and speaking our minds is like a muscle that needs training – Cuddle Party and Cuddlist have given me a way to hone those skills in my everyday life and get better and better at them.
