I feel like I should tell her what I did and suggest she makes public posts private. I’m afraid she will fire me. I’m not good at keeping secrets and if I don’t tell her, I’ll feel guilty.
What should I do?

?? There is NO reason to be ashamed or feel guilty.
She gave you examples of her posts , you read public posts. It's not like you were hacking her.
It's her call whether to make various posts public There *are* no secrets to keep, because there are no secrets (see above -- she
gave and you read some public posts.)
I feel guilty for things that aren't even in the scope of my control (thank you, family of origin), and even with overactive radar can assure you-- there's NOTHING here to feel guilty about.
Only thing to do is carry on. There's nothing that needs to be done.

busymomof5. It's good to hear from you. Hope the current globally difficult situation isn't being too hard on you. How are you holding up? (Only if you'd like to say, of course)
