This negative pattern of thinking can lead to rumination, which is like letting your mind replay clips of negative thoughts, feelings, and moments, stuck on repeat. Let's explore more effective ways to reflect so you can move forward with positive motivation.

One of you gals requested this topic, so to help you be less intimidated by taking over this responsibility, or maybe if you’re already doing it to help you be more efficient, I’ll share some tips on vacay and holiday prep.
