Dear 2023,
What in the world happened? We started off so strong this year and then summer came and we fell apart. By the fall we put ourselves back together and by winter, I was stronger than ever.
2023, you taught me so much this year! Some of the stand out things you taught me were:
Listening to my intuition
Exercise is so important for both my mental health and physical health
Speak up even when your voice shakes
Continue to act with grace
Own up to your mistakes and ask for help
Friendship bloom in the most unexpected places
Sometimes the fairytale you thought you wanted takes a turn and it’s not your forver
Walking away is hard but living a life that you are not happy with is worse.
Romanticize your life
Find beauty and humor in the every day
Get outside more
Don’t hide your whimsy, wonder or childlike joy
Thank you for opening my eyes, letting me make these mistakes and guiding me along.
2024, I have high hopes for you this year! Let’s see what you have in store for me!

These are fabulous lessons to have learned.
