The best thing I ever did was learn to be with myself! Before my son, I never really did anything alone. If someone couldn’t join me, then I wasn’t going. And this made me so dependent on other people! Then I had my son & wanted to show him everything! His dad and I would take him on lil adventures to the Everglades all the time. Tyler, Aidan’s dad, died when he was 14 months old during covid when everything was shut down. To help cope with my grief & also to honor his dad, I continued these little adventures & some have turned into big adventures! We just have always packed up the car n gone everywhere. And whenever I get little pockets of time to myself I find such peace & clarity in being able to go on my own mini adventures. I was missing out on a whole world 🌎 waiting for others to join. Connection & being with others is also so fulfilling for me but being able to be with myself is something I was always missing ❤️
