2025 ⚡️🦋🐚
The year that all the hard work, unpaid hours, sacrifices, therapy, self-improvement & fumbling out of my comfort zone came together.
What made a difference was having:
1. more money (yay)
2. better mental health (less self criticism & perfectionism)
3. slowing the fk down & having a full life outside of study/work
4. honestly, I just feel like I started romanticising my life a little bit more & actually started to give myself credit for who I’ve become & everything I’ve achieved instead of being so mean to myself all the time. I’m not saying you can romanticise your way out of things like grief & trauma, but you might be able to romanticise your way out of day-to-day stress & anxiety.
I’ll be carrying these vibes into 2026 - the year of being kinder to ourselves 🫱🏼🫲🏽
Lots of love, Zoe
