What a great post, love it! I am hoping for some clarity on my goals and dreams for the year ahead. I am hoping to rest and rejuvenate, and to put less pressure on myself as a mom and professional over the winter break, so that I don't feel as distressed when "things aren't going as planned." My research and work over at The Mom Diaries is about how friendships in motherhood (or lack thereof) affect our mental health. Looking forward to continuing our conversation, Parthenia!
I've got some clarity on my goals for next year, Kay. I'm looking forward to the results and new connections I'll make from the action steps. I'm certainly going to attempt to build here on Substack. Making baby steps. This last quarter was about posting consistently. Thank you for the push to actually connect with other writers!
You're welcome, P! I love your words here "baby steps." for me, that's what it is all about. And rewarding myself in small ways when a baby step(s) is taken. As an al-anon person, I love the phrase ODAT (one day at a time), so I tell myself that, too. So glad to be connecting! Excited to keep reading your stuff.
