IT IS DECEMBER! 🤯 I'm feeling that urge to finish the year strong again, but love L'Oreal's reminder: Don't let anyone bully you into "finishing the year strong." It's enough to simply finish.I am feeling so torn between doing the most (I signed up for this and this) and being TIRED. This has been A YEAR. And as much as we want them to, things won't magically get better when the clock strikes midnight into 2021. Now don't me wrong. There are some great things coming: vaccines, new administration, and all of the "new, feel good" vibes that come with any new year.In the meantime, though, we gotta focus on taking care of ourselves. I always get this reminder in the form of burnout or sickness and then I have to rest and prioritize self-care again because I have no choice. Whyyy am I like this? 😫. Sure I have gotten better at resting and adding some self-care activities to my days (LEGOs, reading, Jane the Virgin). And I think that's the point right? Even though I have not solved the puzzle of resting as much as I should, I have gotten better. And that's the goal. Looking back at where I was this time last year, I have become more self compassionate, do more in terms of self-care, and even have created more space to simply be "good enough". That's growth. And I am super duper proud of that. 😍 How about you? Where were you at this time last year? Compare it to where you are now. Where have you made changes? What have you accomplished? In what areas have you gotten better or grown? Carry that energy and those vibes with you as you plan out the last few weeks of the year. Instead of finishing the year strong, how about we finish the year proud? 🥳On to the picks! P.S. I'm taking submissions for a side hustle tips guide that I'm compiling through 12/18. Would love to include you! Just send me your best tip for starting, managing or running a side hustle.
