06. June

June always gets me reflecting. We are halfway through the year, and I honestly feel after June, the year just flies. I blink and it’s Christmas.

Nothing really that eventful happened in June, besides me resigning from my job. June was about going through the emotions and finally putting myself first.

The end of June, I was right back where I was in March & April; at home during the week, making up the days as I go. I like a few days of doing nothing and just chilling, but it gets to the point where I need to be productive and I want to work. Even though I made the decision to quit my job, finding that balance of giving myself time and being productive and working can be hard.

I’m really proud of myself and I don’t think I say it enough, or give myself enough credit for how I’m doing and what I’ve achieved so far. I think everyone should take a minute and give themselves a pat on the back, because this sh*t is hard.

I feel like I’m getting more comfortable and confident with who I am, and I think that happens as you get older. You learn more about yourself and the world and just don’t put up with all the bullsh*t, that can sometimes get thrown in your path. I’m figuring out who I am as a person and trying to find my place and identity in the world, and that’s a universal thing that every human being goes through.

I just hope that the second half of 2025 is full of more beautiful moments. I’m sure there’ll be more lessons too but I’m here to embrace it all.
