It makes me wonder, are we getting ahead of ourselves? Before zipping into the new year, how would it feel to let go and quit carrying some of the weight you’ve acquired in 2024?

I suspect a quick year-end review will reveal responsibilities, worries, unfinished goals, and negative self-talk that you’ve picked up and carried with you.
