2025 has been a fantastic year of transformation and growth for me. It’s the year I got my sparkle back and really started to LIVE and LOVE life again. It’s the year I jumped headfirst into the deep end of the unknown, to chase big dreams.
I learned that feeling uncomfortable just means you are doing something new. If you feel turbulence or pressure, it’s because you are rising. When you rise, things that are not meant for you naturally fall away. Those significant changes can be challenging to come to terms with, but it’s ALWAYS a gift and ALWAYS for the better.
I learned that those who cheer the loudest for you are often strangers who become best friends, not the people you would expect and have known forever.
Life is messy, but it is messier during large seasons of transformation. There are two ways you can deal with pain. You can let it destroy you, or you can use it as fuel to drive you, to dream bigger, work harder. To keep showing up, to keep giving yourself grace, to transform it into love, and not give up on yourself. Growth doesn’t look loud. It shows up quietly, again and again, even when no one is watching. It’s a slight energetic shift people can feel, and sometimes that makes others feel uncomfortable, because life is one big mirror, always reflecting, and sometimes people don’t like what they see in the reflection.
Setbacks and delays are here to teach us lessons, and once we learn them, they will catapult us forward in growth, wisdom, and perspective. Ultimately, no one is jealous of the long, winding journey to get to what you are working towards or have; they are only envious of the outcome.
I am not done learning and growing. I have only scratched the surface, but I am walking into 2026 with a new version of myself that previous versions would not recognize, and for that, I am grateful.
