Take (Self) Care #thisisimaginationatwork #39
Disclaimer: This is an end-of-year post that is not filled with all our high-hitting impact and success stories like you might expect. I am not listing off all the projects we did that I am proud of and trying to push you to look at them all again. But instead, it is a raw look at how I am feeling at the end of another very hard year, knowing that the hard stuff is far from over.
If you are feeling at all emotionally drained, I recommend you just close this screen now. But if you are feeling like you might have the capacity to take on some emotional baggage, I welcome you to keep reading.
Wherever you are today, I am grateful that you showed up in whatever capacity you have.
Take (self) care,
Jenn
