100 Things that Made me Grow in 2023

January 3, 2024.Reading time 17 minutes.

There were a lot of lessons in 2023 – and they are ongoing.

I am learning how to feel and how to be true to myself. I’m learning how to honor my deep sensitivity to all my senses – I’m in this body for a reason and I get to pay attention to and act on what I am experiencing. Biggest lesson: No more ignoring myself, even if it’s inconvenient or seems rude to others. I have hurt myself too long being polite and pleasing.
