Embracing 2025: A Journey to Follow My Passion

On New Year’s Eve 2024, while sitting in my favorite restaurant that feels purely “old New York”, surrounded by my husband, our son, and my best friend and her family, at a table overwhelmed by delicious Italian food, I decided that the coming year of 2025 would be the year that I find and follow my passion. It would be the year that I shed anything that’s in the way of my absolute authentic self. It would be the year that I would take my biggest leaps with complete faith and design a life that I have always dreamed of living. So, after our fulfilling dinner (both belly and soul), and after cruising down the West side highway with minutes to spare to make it to the Promenade above Brooklyn Bridge Park so that we can have a prime view of the Lady Liberty fireworks to welcome in the new year, as I watched the sparkly colorful explosions in the sky, I wondered to the universe: “Universe, show me how good my life can get! Show my best year yet!”. And since I fully expect the universe to do just that, I’ll be journaling my experience throughout the year. So this is my first entry and already I feel the magic. ✨
