I said no to 2 weddings this year that would have required me to travel for 20-30 hours by plane. I found this so hard because I want to be there for my friends, but also because I’m healthy and alive, I wanted to say yes to everything. My mom passed away when she was 49 and I was 13, and not being able to do things was the norm. Now I need to unlearn this to be able to slow down and actually enjoy my life!

Thank you so much for sharing this, I think it shows just how powerful our self-awareness can be 🫶🏻

To unlearn those habits and reassess why we’re saying yes to things. I’m so glad that you chose what was right for you 💞

I’m sorry to hear you lost your mum so young, but I’m pleased your doing the things that make sure you enjoy life x
