In my last post (almost four months ago!), I shared an article I wrote for Best Holistic Life  about transitioning into the holiday season with grace and ease. As we near the end of the holidays and the new year approaches, I wanted to reflect on how this season actually unfolded for me, and how I’m thinking about resetting for the year ahead. Did I get overwhelmed? Absolutely. Did I bite off more than I could chew at times? Yes. But I also honored boundaries and gave myself
