Every year I have a word, an intention... Something that I work toward so that each year I become a better version of myself. Since I started doing this instead of resolutions in 2020 it’s made a huge impact.
For 2023 my intention was detachment and letting go. I wanted to let go of all the things that were holding me back and no longer serving me and learn to detach from those things with strength and understanding.
Well 2023 showed up and came to play… I lost so much: friends and not just any friends those close like sister kinds you thought would never end. I lost my studio and my office. With this I was no longer constantly surrounded by people so I had to really dig in and learn to be alone. The biggest and most painful loss however was the loss of family. In March we lost my cousin Adam, he was only 1 year younger than me and definitely gone too soon. Then in July my heart completely shattered with the loss a person that played such a defining role in my life and who I am… My Grandma. My Grandma was the kindest and most loving soul, always understanding and truly loved unconditionally. Learning to live with this loss has been the ultimate test of strength and understanding. With all of this I learned who I can really count on who showed up when I really needed them the most, so thank you 🙏🏽
I made deeper connections with not only those people but to myself… I really got to know me this year in the solitude.
But 2023 also gave me ohhh so many adventures!! Once in a lifetime adventures… From swimming with manatees, to cruising with whales, star gazing in Joshua Tree, Alligators, Pelicans, and all the beach vibes in Florida, chasing waterfalls in Hawaii, floating with wild horses in Arizona and getting called up on stage with Ginuwine (my biggest childhood crush 😍) 2023 taught me that I can move forward even when my heart is breaking, and that there is beauty in every moment.
So Cheers to 2024 and the adventures waiting, the abundance manifesting and the friendships that are balanced, loyal and help me grow 🎊
