I hope that the start of the new year is bringing you hope and inspiration to do the things you’ve always wanted to do. Although it seems that the world is a dumpster fire right now, we can still find joy in our families, friends, and community. In 2018, I shook off even more of my fears and focused more on saying “yes” to opportunities that felt right, and “no” when it needed to be said. More than anything, I stayed busy, and if you know anything about me, that’s a good thing.
