27 LESSONS FOR MY 27TH YEAR OF LIFE

Another year around the sun and wow, this has absolutely been the most mentally, emotionally, and physically challenging year of my life. There have been many huge life changes, and doing the right thing even though it's the hard thing. Reflecting on my 26th year of life makes me very emotional, in a good and bittersweet way. It has been the year of self growth and figuring out who I am and what I stand for. I've never felt more confident with who and where I am going than I do right now. I still have a lot to figure out (don't get me wrong - I do NOT have my shit together), but I can confidently say I am headed in the right direction, I can feel it.
