Learning to Slow Down
2020 was, for me, a year of challenging lessons. It was a year of brutal and unexpected endings. It was a year of continually thinking "surely this is the thing that will kill me, how can I withstand this much emotional pain?" only to find myself still standing at the end of the day. It was a year of intense loss, heartbreak, and painful change. It was also a year of more meaningful personal growth, gain, and honesty than I have ever experienced.
