It’s a good time to love on ourselves and honor our personal histories as we head into the reflective winter season, so today I’d like to offer you a meditation of gratitude for all the people you’ve been.

I’d also like to take this opportunity to reflect on how grateful I am for the hard things we go (and grow) through. I’m specifically referring to the smaller scale things we handle, maybe on the daily or weekly — things we might get so frustrated and annoyed with. And while I wouldn’t wish them on anyone on purpose, I see how we emerge more capable, more resilient, and even brighter than we might have ever thought we’d be.

celebrate this. — beyond these four walls 🏡
