cheers to chapter 2025 ✨

there’s glitter on the floor after the party ✨🕯️ 🎞️ sometimes life doesn’t happen the way you expect it to but maybe that’s a blessing.

The last couple years were full of trauma, uncertainty, & anxiety. Yet somehow they’ve been beautiful & lovely too. I lost my older sister, I lost my job more than once, & I nearly lost my mom. I was reminded that life will throw things at you unexpectedly, but how you react and take ownership of this narrative can help you turn a new page. I chose to continue moving forward gracefully as I was forced or rather given a chance to adapt my story. To start again. To continue finding my spark.

I did more than survive. I anchored myself. I healed. I ran for fun without races on my calendar (@strava says nearly 3,000 miles in ‘24🤯). I hiked & ran free in the mountains🏔️ . I fell in love with lagree & strength training (thank you @moovseattle family). I made new friends & built lifelong friendships. I treated myself better & learned to ask for help rather than stay silent. I said yes more. I dared to dream a little bigger💭. I lived more fully, intentional, & present. Maybe I found myself & opened myself to even greater opportunities 🌷. So to those experiencing hardship or ambiguity, I hope you also find the joy in all the possibility ✨.

🥂cheers to chapter 2025. I can already tell it’ll be even lovelier than the last. bonne année! bisous 🩷
