She listens
And she trusts,
She speaks
And she learns,
She dances
In the in-between,
Bringing her unique magic
Into the world

It’s the time of year when we review and evaluate the year that’s wrapping up and consider what we want to do, be, and accomplish in the coming year.
I don’t make resolutions, but I do often identify a word or phrase that becomes my focal point.
Last year, it was “defiant”.
I’m still carrying that energy, but for the next year, a different energy is also bubbling up.
It’s softer, with themes of freedom, rest, and healing.
It’s also strong, pointing to purpose and deepening.
And writing. Strong messages about writing, the unique magic that feeds my soul.
Do you pick a word of the year?
What energy is bubbling up for you for 2023?
