Hi 33.

This will be our first time together and it’s lovely to meet you. 32 left me with a few bruises, but I have a feeling you will be bringing the tiger balm with you. So much has happened in the 365 days before you arrived.

I almost lost my life by drowning due to a boat mishap but I found my love for water again. Became a Lexapro girlie and it's made a world of difference in my happiness. I still struggle with anxiety, but I'm hopeful that we can work through it together.

I, like many, experienced being laid off. I spent almost 5 years at my dream job and was heartbroken when that time came to an end. The knowledge that I gained is priceless along with the connections I’ve made. But the thing that I  value the most from my time at Milk Bar is the countless friends. Closing the chapter on Milk Bar was a definite low point, but looking back, I realize it was a catalyst for me to strive for more.

Despite the shortcomings 32 brought, there has been an abundance of love. My community has shown up for me time and time again. I’ve made new friends, found new passions, and spent more time with my family. I cried in the sunlight and smiled in the rain. Above all else, I’m learning to fall in love with myself again and that brings me to you 33.

We are meeting for the first time and I’m excited about the possibility of us. The wonder of what we can accomplish together. I'm determined to be more intentional in everything I do this year, and I believe you deserve the same. Let's make every moment count, and let's be intentional about how we spend our time together. We deserve more intentionality this year.

That’s the word for you 33, intentionality. We are applying it to every aspect of our time together because it’s what both of us deserve. I'm excited about all the adventures that lie ahead, and I'm grateful to have you by my side. I'm ready to embrace this new journey with an open heart and open arms, and I can't wait to see how far we'll go.

Yours for the next 365 days and nights,
