I have to warn you – this isn’t going to be your normal happy-go-lucky inspirational podcast. I’ve got some unloading to do, releasing of my own baggage I’ve somehow accidentally carried into the new year, and I need to unload it before I can move on.

And from others I’ve talked to, podcasts I’ve listened to, we are all feeling a little this way right now. So there is comfort in knowing I’m not alone on this journey of trying to make my way back up to the top of just feeling normal again. Feeling sane and whole. Feeling like I’m ready to conquer this year, just as I had planned.

I’m not there yet, but I’m beginning to feel that passion, that fire, kindling just beneath the surface. So you’ll excuse me for a moment longer while I take a moment to step back, regroup, and come back stronger and better than ever before.

I’m taking my own advice and using this season to hibernate myself into a new me. A better me. One that is full of light, and love, and hope again. And I hope you’ll stay with me as I do. Let’s lean on one another to get through these crazy times.

If there’s anything I’ve learned in these 50-some years around this planet is that no matter how dark things seem, no matter how defeated and desperate you sometimes feel, that darkness always ends. One way or another. And the light always, always, returns to show you a new way again, doesn’t it?

Even in the midst of everything going on around me that appears so negative, so hopeless, so BLAH – my soul senses that there is a change – a huge, massive shift coming my way. And I want to prepare myself the best I can for that change when it happens.

A change is coming my friend, and whether we are ready or not, it is almost upon us. And I for one, don’t want to waste another second hiding in the shadows while it passes me by.

So, what do you say? Take my hand, and let’s find our way out of the darkness, together, you and me?

Alright. Let’s do this.

Until next time, I am unconditionally yours.

All my love,

~Sadie
