First day of 2022
The first day of a New Year is always an exciting time to reflect on the past year and set (new) goals for the year to come. I spent some time today to reflect on my own 2021. I can’t be more proud of what I have accomplished and am looking forward to an even more exiting 2022.
Despite the pandemic, I have achieved tremendous growth in all areas of my life. It doesn’t mean that I don’t have occasions when I am feeling down. However, the number of times that I was down was negligible comparing the most fantastic days I enjoyed throughout the year. Giving credit where it is due, I am forever grateful for the energy leadership coaching I am blessed to be able to practice on a daily basis. I want to share my growth in a few areas of my life.
Family
Our love and relationships among each family member continue to grow stronger and more intimate.
Everyone is thriving in their own way.
We often have conversations on some big topics - racial justice, equality, climate change…and what we each can do to make an impact.
Personal
I have never been felt so powerful as I realize that I have nothing to prove…to anyone, for anything. It’s the authentic me being the best I can ever be on a daily basis.
I read more than a dozen books and listened to hundreds of hours of various podcasts.
I went through many trainings.
I have great health - physically, mentally, emotionally, socially, spiritually, financially and psychologically.
I hired a voice coach.
I have several mentors and sponsors.
