I hope today brings you healing
I usually start Mondays feeling extraordinarily hopeful and excited, writing about getting motivated and finding what you love with each one of my posts. However, today’s post is not about that. It’s been a while since I’ve talked about my struggles and things that may not go as well as I want them to. I’ve…
