We’re a couple days away from the new year and as always, we’re pressured to recap the year because everyone else is doing it. Last year the trend was about What you’re going to bring into 2025, and what you’ll leave behind. So naturally, people said they’ll leave behind toxicity, negativity bla bla. When really, 2025 also got all those things stuck in our luggage.

I like this year’s trend a lot more. It’s The Gratitude Cake. Where you and a bunch of loved ones write down what you’re proud of or grateful for this year.

Love how the focus was gratitude and just the good stuff.

Because boyyyyy if I choose to focus on the bad stuff, 2025 is the perfect “bad year” - lost my business, lost my reputation, lost my income, lost my identity, lost my freedom. And as I come to this reflection time, can I just say that…
