This year I'm trying something different for my new year's resolution--instead of outlining specific goals, I'm setting an overarching theme for the year: detox. It was going to be health, as in "getting back to a healthy place mentally/physically/emotionally" but honestly, after 2022?? I need to dig myself out of the hole I'm in first.

To be clear, I'm doing okay!! Or rather, I have the resources to be doing okay at some point. I'm hoping that this is the year when I make time to examine old habits and possessions and get rid of what no longer serves me (did I mention that I found a tube of hydrocortisone that expired during the Obama administration in my medicine cabinet?). I think I've learned during the last two years to be less precious with my storytelling abilities, and to trust that my ideas can withstand harsh criticism or even seeming annihilation. I hope the same can apply to my personal life.
