I'm sick for the second time this year, and January isn't even over yet. 🤧


At the beginning of the year, I had flu-like symptoms for the first full week of the month. 

I was still in my hibernation mode though, so I stayed in bed and was just thankful that it was a slow, quiet start to 2026.

Though, I'll admit, this being the second year in a row that I've started on the back foot, I was a little frustrated.

And to be under the weather again, is discouraging [I say as I type this from my bed 😞].

But I'm trying not to be hard on myself.
Because I'm listening to what my body needs.
I've started slow instead of racing right out of the gate.
I'm being intentional with my time and my energy levels.

And the way things are going these days, is it any wonder our physical and mental health are taking a toll?

I wouldn't actually be surprised if the news I'm consuming, the emotions that I'm feeling, and the turmoil in and outside of myself is directly related to my current state, twice over.

I'm feeling it in every way.

If you are too, I'm sending you love and grace, my friend.

You are a deeply feeling person in a messy f*cking world. ♥️
