EP. 130 A Year Into COVID

This is officially the worst anniversary ever -- and while I’m absolutely not celebrating the year of COVID-19, I am definitely reflecting on it. ⁠

I am thinking of how I learned (even more) the importance of holding my loved ones close. Of not taking for granted what we have, of not hoarding things other people may need (lookin’ at you, TP) and, above all, how this season of life will change all others. ⁠

If I can take away one single thing this year, it's to be kind to one another.

EP. 127 Getting Through The Darkness

Without darkness there would be no light. Without sadness there would be no joy. Without the low times, you wouldn’t feel the high ones.

In order to live a full life, you can’t experience just happiness, you must go through life events and situations that will make you appreciate that happiness.

The truth is that your struggles are not against you, they are FOR YOU.

They present themselves to give you an opportunity to prove yourself, to strengthen yourself and to figure out your true grit (Thanks, John Wayne).

Sometimes you just have to stay strong through the winters + have faith that spring will come again.
