Top 12 Lessons I'm Bringing into 2023

As I step further into 2023, I bring with me the top 12 lessons learned in 2022:

✦ My boundaries are the most important thing to have integrity around.

✦ As long as I'm taking care of my body, and resting before it screams at me to stop, everything else will get done in good time.

✦ Emotions don't need to be let go of, transformed, or meditated away. They just need to be witnessed, acknowledged, and understood. Then, I need to move my body and express sound.

✦ My mind is the most powerful tool I have, but if I don't master it, and I let it run loose, it will destroy me. There is a still place from which I can witness myself, my mind, and the world around me. Keep leaning back into that awareness.

✦ After I wake up, and before anything else (other than drinking a ton of water), sit in silence and breathe with myself.

✦ I can only see what's on the radar screen in front of me. Trust, believe, and KNOW that something even better is coming, and it's all going to make sense in the end. This too shall pass, and I will soon understand the purpose and gift of this challenge.

✦ Sisterhood will always help me see a greater perspective, and know that I'm not alone. Keep them close.

✦ Everything can be worked out if both parties are willing to communicate and listen with compassion and patience. If someone isn't willing to meet me there...

✦ People are going to be who they are. I can't change them, but I can accept them. And that changes everything.

✦ The more I love, forgive, and accept myself, the more I can extend that to others.

✦ Absolutely every trigger is a reflection of something within me that wants/needs to be looked at and explored.

✦ I am divine and whole. I am everything there ever was. Whatever shows up in my reality that I don't want - I am somehow creating that based off a belief. That's how powerful I am.

...While my partnership with my beloved Chris Dub brought SO many lessons, it's hard to distill it down to just one. Our relationship has truly supported all these other lessons to come to light. I guess the biggest thing I've learned about our union that I'm taking into 2023 is:

~ We're in this together,

~ We're on the same team,

~ And, I DESERVE this love.

I think that last piece is perhaps the most important lesson of all for me. Lucky #13
