As I said goodbye to 2022, in the middle of December 31st, an overwhelming set of emotions came up taking my whole body into chaos. Sadness, defeat, and anxiety took over me as I looked back to the year I had. So many plans that didn't happen. So many dreams left to be dreamed again. … Continue reading [WID0056] Guest Post by Rebeca: The Transition Phase
