It’s July 1, the first day of the 2nd half of 2025. There's something quietly powerful about this moment, like turning the page to a fresh chapter while still holding the story of everything that came before.
The Gift of Looking Back
The past six months have been a teacher, whether we realized it or not. Take a moment to sit with what you've experienced. What moments made you laugh? What challenges pushed you to discover strength you didn't know you had? Which relationships deepened, and which dreams began to take shape?
This isn't about judging your progress or measuring yourself against an arbitray or impossible standard. It's about recognizing that you've been living, growing, and becoming every single day.
The tiny wins count just as much as the loud ones. Maybe you learned to say no with kindness, finally tried that recipe you bookmarked months ago, or simply showed up for yourself when it felt hard to get out of bed.
Every experience has created the person you are today. That's worth acknowledging.
