What a journey it's been! I feel so excited for the 20's because SO much can happen! 🤸‍♀️✨ This decade I graduated from university, did a graduate scheme at Abercrombie & Fitch, was general manager of Itsu before I quit at 25 to pursue my dream job of presenting. I've studied travel writing, learnt to be a DJ (which turned into a profession), am studying interior design. I've been a brunette, solo travelled, I've experimented with different fashions, and explored different sides of my personality! Looking at the first part of the decade, I really defined myself through the relationships I was in, whereas the second part I was discovering myself with all the highs and lows that entailed. I've made and lost friends, & I've lived life spontaneously and travelled as much as I can. I've survived suicidal thoughts and depression, I stopped airbrushing my images, and learnt to love and accept myself. I bought a house on my own, I became an animal mum to a farm! ❤️ So much can happen in a decade, which is amazing as it means if you're not in a good place now, just know that you have a fresh start to make positive changes, whether it's a career change, a desire to travel more, or wish to leave behind toxic relationships / friendships. ✨ In terms of new year resolutions, I find long-term goals a tad overwhelming and hard to stick to, plus they can lead to a sense of failure. I like to set new goals every Monday, but I am taking some mantras into the new year, and wanted share them with you: I choose to continue to pursue happiness (whatever that means to me and however that may change along the way) 😁 I choose to be the cause and source of my emotions. (Meaning I won't let the actions and behaviours of others affect me, and I'll walk away from toxic people). 🤸‍♀️ I choose to feel at home in my body. 🙏 HAPPY NEW YEAR to all of you, and here's to a healthier and happier decade full of growth and development. Thanks for all the support and conversations on here, I appreciate you all (apart from the trolls). ❤️」1月1日 0時37分
