Hi friends! Gosh, I still cannot believe another whole year has passed. It feels like yesterday that we were closing out 2021 and getting ready for our big move. And now one year later, I find myself sitting in our new house on my couch in front of my big living room window, looking at a Christmas Tree and a stack of baby clothes, and feeling this little girl kicking in my belly as I type. What a year it’s been!

A lot has happened, and a lot is coming up! I know some of you might have questions, and I want to keep you all in the loop. You’ve come along on my journey this far, and I cannot properly express how deeply grateful I am that you’ve followed along this far. Because just by being here, you have supported my business in more ways than you know. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you!

Okay, so now for the update. I thought instead of some lengthy, wordy blog post, it would be fun to do this a little different. Remember those Myspace Surveys we used to fill out back in the day? It was kind of like BeReal, only you had to share what was happening in that moment by answering every question truthfully (including which object was sitting closest to you. Juicy stuff!!) Well, I’m about to give you my 2023 New Year Life Update, Myspace Survey Style.

Here goes!

2023 New Year Totally Awesome Survey

So there you have it – a few fun and random (hopefully somewhat interesting) facts about me. And in all seriousness, I will close with this. If you were to ask me what I foresee happening with life and business in 2023, my answer would be that I truly don’t know. While there is a lot to look forward to, there are a lot of unknowns! It’s a beautiful thing – but also scary. I am not sure exactly what 2023 will bring, but I do know that I feel wholeheartedly prepared and ready for whatever comes. And I know from years past, both challenging and wonderful, that whatever it is will bring growth, wisdom, and strength. That is one thing I can count on, and that is what I am looking forward to most!

I hope that if you are experiencing any uncertainty going into the new year, it’s the happy, giddy kind! Even if you aren’t quite sure what to expect, you can still walk forward with confidence. We’re in this together!

If you made it this far, and if you’d like, please leave me a comment or shoot me a DM. I would love to know what you are looking forward to in the new year!

Until next time, sending love and wishing you lots of growth, happiness and success!

XO, Sarah W.
