Hi, you guys, and welcome back to the Sad to Savage podcast. I have not done a solo episode in what feels

like a minute, and I love civil episodes. I really miss just being able to shit chat and talk with you guys.

I do also love my interviews, but I'm excited for today. Now, in today's episode, as I'm recording

this, I'm a few days out from my birthday where I'm going to be turning 27,

which is crazy.

So crazy.

I've always felt older, but I feel like 27 is just such, it's so much older than 26 in my head.

And so for today's episode, I wanted to share 26 things I learned while being 26. Now, over the past

couple months, I mean, I've obviously known I'm going to be turning 27, but it seemed so scary

at first. And I realized like there is this not sadness. And maybe this is just me, but I had this

thought that like getting older is

bad like turning 27 oh my gosh I'm getting older and I had to stop and talk to myself and I'm like wait

I can't wait to be 27 I'm so grateful to be alive and I'm so grateful that I'm getting another year

and I'm going into this year with everything that I experienced and everything that I got to learn while being 26. Now this last

year of being 26 I while I'm so grateful and I love my life and I think it is so beautiful.

This year beat me up. It really, this was one of

my hardest years. I think that I've ever had in a different way where when I was, every year I look

back, I'm like, how beautiful, how amazing, but how hard. This year like kicked me when I was down,

kind of. But reflecting on it has been so beautiful because I'm like, oh my gosh,

all of those like low blows and all of the hard moments that I had to get through, I can't

wait to be 27 and to kind of benefit from those low moments to take what I learned to take my

experiences and use them to improve and use them to fuel me and use them to continue to change
