Thanks Jen. Very wise and personally applicable too. I have also had some 'starting over' times, professionally and personally and they are big moments. There is a cost to pay but also life sometimes takes different turns, some you choose, some partially so, some just happen right? There's this feeling around control that I need to get in touch with honestly and ask myself, 'how much do i need?' I can only point to moments of change when it comes to arriving at the person I am now and I never really look back and wish those changes didn't happen, but there is a cost to pay, learning curves, uncomfortable new situations. They are big moments and they come at a kind of cost energetically. Decisions have consequences and control over those decisions is an adult experience. My birthday rituals have fallen to the wayside a bit in recent years, but up until around 2019 I had created a tradition of celebrating my birthday with different people over the course of a week. Birthday Week. I accepted the role of celebrant and also liked to use the tradition of it being an 'honor' to treat others on my birthday too. I haven't had much birthday time these last few years though. Perhaps this coming one!
