Unabashedly celebrating myself and encouraging you to do the same!
Whilst getting ready tonight I had a moment of realising and appreciating how far I've come in the past 12 months.
This time last year, I was stuck indoors, practising how to walk with a messed up leg and bum-shuffling up and down the stairs. I had no Christmas gatherings to go to. Even just grabbing some greenery from the garden to decorate my Yule log was a massive faff!
Now I'm wearing heels, out meeting friends and making new ones, organising meet ups and planning trips to Christmas markets. I'm so grateful for regaining the use of my leg, but also the lovely community I've found in Slaithwaite, all made possible because I took a chance on myself and started a Circle.
As much as I love living here, starting over in a new place with no connections wasn't easy. In fact the first couple of years were really lonely. I knew I had to be patient and that the right people would come along. I finally feel like I'm finding my tribe and cultivating those connections I longed for.
2025 has been both challenging and amazing. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of it. Here's to 2026 ✨️
