My word was "lighter." I wanted to deal with what was weighing me down, do what felt lighter. I tend to carry this constant fear, worry, not-enough-ness. This is a work in progress and I think that I will keep this word for 2023 as well. It sums up my goals these days, to get on with things, to live my best life, to feel joy, peace. Thank you for all that you share.

Dearest Jessica I heard in your voice how difficult it has been to start, and continue your healing progress. I admire your honesty when you speak- another hard thing to do. I hope that you remain strong and your progress along the positive road is uplifting. My very best wishes, Ali Dawson.

Lovely and insightful read 🙂 I’ve been on a monumental healing journey over recent years and this said it all in a nutshell! My word of the year was heartfelt this year, then I switched to what I thought was next years half way through - receive. How can we call in what’s meant for us if we have nowhere for it to land? A lots changed since I brought that in 🥰 have you figured out your word for 2023?

so pleased you enjoyed it Amber. So good to know you've felt similar things / had the same experiences. Those words sound so beautiful! I'm leaning towards....connection for 2023. Have you got yours?

Lovely ☺️

I’ve just decided on the word

“unleash”

I’ve been practicing all this time and I really feel next year will be time to unleash all parts of me, fully embrace my truth and voice it without apology💙

A very, very lovely letter, Jessica. Thank you for sharing it with us. Your path to where you are now has been so hard, but you have really risen and come such a long way!

It resonated deeply in me, and it has given me quite a few new things to think about. Somehow, I had not thought about the end of this year yet. Nor had I thought about my word of the year (I might have to look in an old notebook to actuallyremember what it was). But I needed to start thinking about the year, I think. It's... been an interesting year. Illness in my close family, new rifts in old wounds, new, deep realizations to make me see my world in new ways. I can see now that I need to look back at the year with kind eyes, so I can start to look forward to the next one.
