Chrissy❤️ it's so lovely to hear from you. And so well timed. I just kicked off a 100-day Life Lesson project on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brazenfaced/ and I am continuing with this newsletter too—stay tuned. I needed some time to pause and reflect, and am now feeling really, really electrified (!!) I hope you're well and sending a big hug.

Renee! Thank you so much. I vividly remember when you first commented all those months ago and I was touched to have you here. And now I'm even more touched that you're here for what's next <3

Can't wait for your next year's adventure. And mine! I have spent years bravely shouldering (soldiering) my previous statuses... Stati? ... As Uber responsible for a dependent husband and kid and... Others. Life changed 12/31/22. I want to change with it. And crying might be part of that. And seeking adventure as a person thrice your age? Why the fuck not. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Hell yes. I am so here for this, Cynthia. Onwards! Rooting for you and what's to come

As always, your personal observations ring so true. Do you know me? Not “a coward even though I still felt afraid all the time”. We “face new fears every single day”. That’s life, isn’t? We’re never done. I’m looking forward to more, more, more from you!

Reading this (news)letter put a huge smile on my face. It's inspiring all you accomplished this past year. I hope that I can come half this year as you did last year. One of my best friends I have started saying to each other (as sort of a mantra and resolution for this year) "May it be different. May it be good." Hope this for you too. Un abrazo!

Wow and how encouragingly honest, and so creative has been your writing! You have giving me courage to begin writing... something I've been wanting to do for a long time and feared the vulnerability needed... and your sketches with your writing is so refreshing and fun to read!! Please

DO keep on, 'cuz I am going to keep reading... ;-))!!
