by Hope
This year has probably been the hardest year I have ever faced mentally and emotionally. Therefore, I am VERY, VERY ready for a new year, a new start. And a lot of that has to do with mindset work. If you haven’t checked out the book I recommended a week or so ago, I still highly recommend it.
I wanted to close out my BAD posts for this year with my wishes for myself and you…
- Peace and happiness even and especially in the struggle and small things.
- Enough – food for our family, hard to appreciate the easy, and tears to appreciate the smiles.
- Growth and security.
- Love – I wish you repaired relationships, confidence and trust, and more than that a support system that will support you no matter what comes.
I am de-cluttering my life. Anything that doesn’t serve me is being let go, given away, and retired. This includes physical and material items, apps on my phone, relationships, and time sucking activities and distractions.
Here’s to a fresh start and new perspective in 2023. I am grateful for you and the role this community has played in my life over the last 7ish years. Thank you for the tough love, the wisdom and guidance, and the opportunity to share just a little part of my story with you.
See you in 2023!
Hope is a creative, solutions-focused business manager helping clients grow their business and work more efficiently by leveraging expertise in project management, digital marketing, & tech solutions. She’s recently become an empty nester as her 5 foster/adoptive kids have spread their wings. She lives with her 5 dogs in a small town in NE Georgia and prefers the mountains to the beaches any day. She struggles with the travel bug and is doing her best to help each of her kids as their finish schooling and become independent (but it’s hard!) She has run her own consulting company for almost twenty years! Hope began sharing her journey with the BAD community in the Spring of 2015 and feels like she has finally in a place to really focus on making wise financial decisions.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Hope (and family)! It’s been a rough past year for you but you’ve got this, keep going one small step at a time and know you’re getting to where you need to be. 2023 is your year 🙂
Thank you for the encouragement, it is very much appreciated.
