Stepping into February, you might find yourself pausing, reflecting on the year's start—perhaps facing the realities of resolutions that didn’t quite take off as hoped. It's a familiar feeling, isn't it? This moment isn't about dwelling on what hasn't been achieved; it's an opportunity to turn inward, to really listen to what you need. February calls for a do-over or reset. Lately, I have been seeing and receiving a lot of "I need a break" newsletters. This tells me one thing...we are doing too much.
As women, whether you're managing a house, business, or just yourself, our hormones are always doing something without our permission. This leads us into quick feelings of overwhelm and anxiety. Whether it's menstruation or menopause, we have to allow capacity and grace for renewal.
At the end of the day, if you don't allow a reset when you need it, you will find yourself going down a rabbit hole of "ugh" or worse yet, become "meh" in life. Take a few minutes today and think about each quote, let them guide you to and through your reset!
