I love the INs and OUTs lists everyone makes around this time of year. So naturally I make my own. They are fun but powerful reminders of what I’m taking with me into the new year, and what I’m leaving far behind (for example, I’ll be happy to never eat at a strip mall chain restaurant in Florida ever again).
2024 came in hot. My head is still spinning at the sheer amount of plot twists and lessons that were packed within this weird and wild 365 day span of time. But we keep it moving. We learn and we grow and even when it doesn’t all make sense, we somehow become better versions of ourselves.
And we only listen to Taylor Swift when we’re mentally preapred to do so.
No matter what this year brought you, I hope that you give yourself a hell of a lot of grace. And I hope that you decide who you will be in 2025, because you, my queen, have been — and always will be — the author of your life.
XOXO,
Cara

1:08.7 | Not only can I not think straight, but I can't record a freaking podcast |

1:21.5 | the candles. That's when I'm eyeing the bottle of wine and wondering if it's too early to open it. |
