Reflecting on what was and where to now by Jacq Koloski

I remember at the beginning of 2024, thinking what a big year I had coming up. Never did I imagine it would be as big as it has been. I don’t think I’ve really fully acknowledged the amount of change I have been through. I tend to get on with it and just do what’s needed to be done. Now that’s not to say I didn’t  have moments of doubt, fear, uncertainty, being totally uncomfortable and questioning all that Ive chosen. It means that even though all of that and more was going on, I looked within and knew that the choices I made were exactly what was needed for me. 

I leaned into the uncomfortable and  navigated my way through it. I’m so blessed to have family and friends who have been there for me. My kids have been my biggest supporters as always. Encouraging me to choose for me and letting me know it’s my time now. 

As the end of 2024 approaches and 2025 awaits, I look over the year and acknowledge the journey I’ve been on. There are many things I didn’t do that were in my plan for 2024 and that’s ok. There were other life adventures that came along that required my focus and attention. A New Year is almost upon us, waiting for us to choose, waiting for us to dare to dream just a bit, or alot.

💜What do you need to wrap up for 2024? Is there anything that needs finishing of  before the year ends? 

💜Make a realistic list and start working through it. Give yourself permission and time to complete it. You got this.

💜What dreams do you have for 2025? Dream big. 

💜What self care will you choose for you in 2025? 

💜What have you always wanted to do but have never chosen it? Is 2025 the year for it? 

Whatever your 2024 has looked like, know that you did your best in each moment. Acknowledge yourself for the journey you have been on. Thank the year for all the gifts and adventures you’ve had. You made the best choices in each moment and that’s all you can ask of yourself. 

Be kind and gentle with your self as you finish the year and bring in 2025. How will you celebrate the start of a new year? Take the time you need to dream and celebrate. You are worth it.
