How to Feel Like you are Enough

What I learned by turning 40.

Hi folks!

It’s been a minute. 

Back in September I set off on the Fall of Slow. After a 2023 with some high highs, and several low lows – I was craving time to come back to myself. I’ve spent the past five months giving myself permission to STOP, to PLAY, and to go INTERNAL.

I was not expecting to take such a long hiatus from writing. While in the Fall of Slow, I returned to my journaling practice so I could process the rollercoaster of last year. I’ve taken the past few months to reorganize my schedule (and, really, my life) to be more aligned with Stopping, Playing, and being Internal. That shift, funnily enough, has inspired me to write again in a form that is not just chicken-scratch in a soft notebook (eg. what my journaling looks like).

So, I’m here, admittedly, a bit out of practice in writing in a linear fashion. There are so many thoughts and ideas that are backed up that it’s tricky to figure out where to start. 

To rip off the Band-Aid, I’m sharing a Snapshot from my 40^th birthday in December, and my reflections on how I spent it.
