Yesterday was reflection day.
I switched off my phone and my day looked somewhat like this:
💫 Yoga practice & meditation to ground myself
💫 Reading a bit in Yung Pueblo’s book to feel inspired (I always open this book on random pages and it tends to be exactly right for what I need in that moment)
💫 Filled out the YearCompass workbook to reflect back on 2025 and looking forward to 2026
💫 Went for a walk in my area - the weather is lovely atm!
💫 Worked on my business year review with another workbook by my coach
💫 Cooked some good food and watched the new Emily in Paris in the evening afterwards
There were a lot of tears looking back at the past year.
2025 wasn’t a year of growth. It was a year of healing and recovery. Of rebuilding the foundations of myself and my business after being out for almost 6 months due to my illness.
It wasn’t a pretty year. It was a rough one.
But I know this year had to happen. Because it díd shift something. I ám healing. I ám doing better physically, even though the process is slow and frustrating.
This year taught me so much about acceptance and finding peace within the now and with what is - even if I don’t like what is now.
It taught me a lot about myself and how I was still trying so hard to fit in and be liked.
I’ve let go of many people this year, because I learned I don’t have to fit in if I don’t want to. And I don’t.
I’ve let go of many more things - people, habits, beliefs, behaviour, thoughts - that belonged to my old identity. The old me.
But I’m not that version of me anymore. I feel myself finally stepping into deeper maturity. I guess it comes with age, but it also comes because of what I’ve been through.
So even though this year wasn’t my happiest one, I’m grateful for 2025. So much is ending, and it’s creating space for new things to move into my life - in business, friendships, Portugal, my love life…everywhere.
And God, I’m ready for that. So bring it on 2026.
I can’t wait 🔥🔥🔥
