*A quick note before jumping into this blog post: we’re trying something new this week – a blogcast! So you can listen to the post or read it… or both. I’d love for you to take a listen and let me know what you think!*  

I can’t believe this is the final blog post of 2018! As I think back on all that’s happened this year, it’s hitting me just how much of an adventure it’s been. And I’m so grateful for every minute of it. Because it was all those moments that brought me to this one right here.

One thing I love about writing reflective posts is the way they always help me recognize how much I’ve learned. So today, I’m sharing 18 reflections from 2018!

Here we go:

  1. Asking for help takes courage.
  2. Happiness doesn’t have any prerequisites.

  13. Letting go is the hard part of letting in new opportunities.
  14. Appreciating the little things can make the biggest difference.
  15. Doing it all is overrated. Our energy is meant for doing the things that really matter.
  16. Breathing is underrated. Simple act – big result.
  17. Good friends are a treasure and deserve to be treated as such. Don’t take them for granted.
  18. When things won’t stay together… maybe it’s better to let them fall apart. And take the chance to rebuild on stronger foundation.
  19. Even though it went by so quickly, A LOT happened this year. A lot of work and a lot of shifts as our BTL mission became more clear. A lot of laughter and a lot of tears. A lot of
