Today I Turn 32
I’m closing out one rotation around the sun and 12 moon cycles around me. According to Neil deGrasse Tyson, this year I completed being alive for a billion seconds.
This past year was one of so much change and transition, that I decided to do a completion ritual on my last day of being 31. I journal wrote and made lists of the following:
My highlights of the year
My hard moments I made it through
My trips
New things I tried
My moments of putting myself out there and being seen (this was my 2019 New Year Intention)
Things I let go of
The 31 people and things that inspired me and supported my growth this year.
So much happens in a year, and we often don’t often pause to reflect on what happened. In doing this ritual, I got a sense of how much I accomplished, survived, and grew. What surprised me was how many new things I did like learning to oil paint, getting my first coaching clients, and meeting Misty Copeland.
Acknowledging people is one of my favorite things to do, so I made my gratitude list into a blog post: 31 people and things that inspired me and supported my growth at 31.
Thank you for being on this journey with me,
Lauren
