You have 4 weekends left this year, I hope you choose them wisely and intentionally! Remember that you can end it soft and slow. In your own rhythm, not the one the world tries to rush you into.
For my fellow daughters of immigrants who were raised to “finish strong no matter what”… this is your permission slip to do the opposite. Rest is still achievement. Slowing down is still success. Ease is still enough.
A few ways to end the year gently:
• Pick one thing to actually care about, let the rest fall away
• Say “no” without the 3-paragraph explanation
• schedule in something that you'll look forward to every week
• Take breaks before you’re overwhelmed, not after
• Let yourself be held by community, not just your to-do list
And in the spirit of practicing what I preach…
I’ll be taking a break until January to rest, be present, and enjoy the holidays!
See you in the new year. Peace out ✌🏽🌿
