Letting Go of Being Let Go
This post was written a few weeks prior to being posted. I should preface that the title is more aspirational than it leads on.

My 2019 Ta-Da List: a Year Accomplished
It’s the end of another year, another decade. So much has happened it’s exhausting. To think, that 2010 was the year Greece received a huge bailout, Wikileaks happened, Canada hosted the Olympic winter games, Ke$ha’s Tik Tok was the number one song and people were getting rid of their flared jeans. Insane, right? It seems like […]
